What Should I Do With A Crown I Am Unhappy With?

If I am understanding your question, you have a front crown that was placed that does not meet your aesthetic expectations.

To design a beautiful, healthy smile, one must consider "golden proportion" which allows for the harmonious blending of materials utilizing composite, veneers or crown restorations.

What to do with uneven teeth

It's hard to answer your question because ,dentist usually do not crown teeth just because they are uneven . Did your teeth have other issues? The reason for uneven teeth are many, and if your bite does not allow them to line up evenly, crowns can not help either.

Mock up treatment

I would take a set of diagnostic impression and make casts of your teeth. With photos you can address the problems you want to improve and then have a ceramist wax the teeth up you want fixed. from this waxed up model you visually know what the final product will look like and make a decision based on an expected outcome .
