Front Teeth are Too Long or Too Short

The colour, width, shape and length of your front teeth play a crucial role in defining your smile! Longer front teeth are often associate with youthfullness, but too long is also a smile stopper. Similair if the front teeth are too short then you might appear to look older due to a worned smile or a longer upper lip. Our front teeth are the first thing we show when we speak or smile. It goes without saying that any defects or abnormalities will be revealed instantly and unfortuanely we cannot hide this.
Cosmetic dentistry can help to restore the shape and length of your smile. Even if you have a near perfect smile, but 1 tooth is slightly chipped or uneven, that can be enough to let you go through life with a tight-lipped smile.
