If your teeth look small

A single small tooth can throw off the proportion of the whole smile. Width and length are added in small increments so the tooth matches its neighbours.

What veneers may change

  • Add width and length to restore left-right proportion
  • Soften dark triangles between teeth
  • Match shade to surrounding natural teeth

When veneers may not be suitable

  • Congenitally missing teeth may need a different treatment
  • A deep bite can limit how much length is added

FAQ

Is prep-free possible?
Preparation-free veneers are possible in certain clinical situations, but they are not a suitable option for everyone. This approach is generally considered when teeth are undersized or positioned inward, allowing for added volume without appearing bulky. However, even a minimal addition of thickness can affect the bite and the feel against your lips. The final decision depends heavily on your specific tooth alignment, gum line, and functional bite. You should have a dentist evaluate your smile to determine if you are a candidate and discuss how the added thickness might impact your overall result.
Can only two teeth be treated?
While treating only two teeth is an option that can be considered, achieving a seamless result requires careful planning. The primary challenge is creating veneers that perfectly match the color, shape, and subtle characteristics of the neighboring natural teeth. Even minor variations can make the treated teeth noticeable, so this approach depends on the specific situation. Discuss this with your dentist to determine if it's the right choice for you. It's wise to ask how the new veneers will be blended with your existing teeth and whether a preview is possible to ensure a harmonious outcome.
