Porcelain Veneers: Closing Spaces

The Problem: This wonderful young lady and her family wanted a fuller, more beautiful smile. As a graduation present, her grandmother paid for her to come to Donaldson & Guenther to get it. When she came to us, she had spaces between her teeth; also, the center left tooth had been fractured and bonded previously.

The Solution: It is very important to develop good proportions when closing spaces and not just fill the gaps. The two front teeth should be prominent and the side teeth smaller with a slight angle. Most “cosmetic” dentistry I (Dr. D) see looks too plump and without natural inclinations. The porcelain veneers we did here compliment the patient’s fresh youthful beauty.
