Fused front teeth? (photos)

A combination of orthodontics and/or bonding or veneers is probably the best choice depending on root position  Avoid extractions.I would begin by having a diagnostic wax-up and transferring it by a stent to your mouth.  A littele extra time and expense up front can save a lot of problems in the future.An alternative would be to do bonding (diagnostic composite build-up)  in the mouth to achieve cosmetics and then moving to veneers.  You will probably need to prep the teeth vor veneers, this is not a no prep case.Veneers may be excellent choice.

Hello there,I would recommend a combination of veneers and crowns to fix your smile. See a cosmetic dentist for a complete evaluation to determine your options, and always look at before and after photos when choosing your dentist. They will give you a good idea about what you can expect.  I would also recommend having a wax-up done. This will allow you to see how your case is going to look before you do anything to your teeth. Good luck and I hope this helps. Follow me if you have more questions.Sarah Thompson, DMDSt. Louis, MO area (O'Fallon, IL)Real Self 100

I would have to do a full exam and look at your teeth and x-rays, but veneers can help! They are very conservative in prepping the teeth (if done correctly), and they can last a long time and look great! Make sure you do your research and go to a dentist that is very well experienced with veneers!
