Question

I have an implant on my right front tooth and a crown on the next one. I am in the process of replacing the implant and I am considering putting veneers on the two top left tooth to improve my smile. Do you think it is a good idea? It is very stressful for me.

If you're replacing an implant on your right front tooth and have a crown next to it, adding veneers to the top left teeth could indeed help create a more balanced and symmetrical appearance for your smile. Veneers are a great option for cosmetic improvements as they can adjust the color, shape, and alignment of your teeth with minimal invasiveness.

It’s understandable that dental procedures can be stressful, but addressing each tooth individually to ensure overall harmony can significantly enhance both the aesthetics and functionality of your smile. It's a good idea to discuss this plan thoroughly with your dentist, who can provide a mock-up or digital simulation of how the veneers would look. This way, you can visualize the end result and feel more confident in your decision.

I personally recommend treating the front four teeth. When working on front teeth, it’s best to work in sets of two (the two central teeth, the two lateral teeth, or all four front teeth). In cases like this, my patients are always thrilled with the results when we address the front four. Achieving balance from one side to the other is essential for a beautiful smile!
