It sounds as if the smooth glaze of the ceramic was adjusted when they corrected your bite. Ask the dentist to polish the area, it is a quick fix,
Dentist
looking at the photo it appears that you are moving your lower jaw forward when smiling. Orthodontics may not be the answer for you.
Dentist
Yes, this is a problem. Your back teeth should touch slightly before your front teeth do. the back teeth are stronger snd need to touch for chewing efficiency. When the front touch first they can splay out and make your smile less attractive.

Unfortunately, it does appear that a new orhtodontic consult would be advisable. The current orthodontist should have closed the spaces, so having a second pair of eyes on the problem will probably fix it with new aligners or braces.
Dentist
It looks as if you bleached your teeth and the tray or strip did not go all the way to the gum line. Unfortunately the photo is not super clear so that is all I can comment on now.
Dentist
Sorry to say, but no procedure is available yet to paint the teeth. I have tried it before and not had success. It is a great idea, but no product exists at this time.
Dentist
Looking at the photos I do see the dark line on the two front teeth and I see the darkness/translucency on the surrounding teeth. I believe your 'darkness' may be inherently in the teeth, possibly due to a malformation of the tooth during its younger phases. Bleaching would lighten the color but it may still be there. It is worth a try. If the result is not acceptable to you, then veneers or bonding to cover the color would be needed.
Dentist
When you are looking only to do two veneers, it iws best to have a local ceramist/artist make the teeth and work with the dentist to match the two new teeth to your existing tooth color. The Lumineer lab is in California, and sending a photo of the color of your teeth to them is helpful but matching that color through photographs is quite difficult. I prefer to work with a local technician to help get the color correct the first time and not send the lumineers back to California to try to match color.
Dentist
Yes, I would consider using lumineers. They can be made to fit over your existing teeth and are so thin, you may barely notice the extra thickness. We have done over 50 lumineer cases, so I am sure the solution will work for you.

Dr. Goldstein is an exceptional dentist! When I first met him, I instantly got a good feeling from him. He is honest and skilled. He does not try to sell stuff to you and makes sure to go over all the options that fit your budget to meet your expectations. I used to go to a dentist in Norcross and recently decided to switch. So far, it has been the best decision I've made in a long time. They truly treat everyone like family, from the moment you walk in to the moment you walk out and even when they reach out to schedule appointments.
