I Have Small Lateral Incisors? (photo)

Do not worry about your smile.  Ask your orthodontist to refer you to a cosmetic dentist.  The dentist can then take impressions of your teeth, have them waxed up to ideal shape and then both the orthodonitst and your dentist have a guide -What I have done many times is to take off the braces on the small teeth, bond them to ideal shape and them send back to the orthodontist to finish.!  Good luck and congratulations on working on a great smile!

Start with your orthodontist in most cases the dentist will know about this problem before tx is started. The best option in my opinion is leave the space and when braces are complete do bonding or veneers to make the tooth the correct size and shape. Another option is squeeze the teeth together and understand the teeth will still be small but no space and bite may be off... Good Luck

It would appear you are still early in your orthodontics.  My guess would be your final results will appear much more to your liking as you get closer to the time of removal.  As you come close to the end of your orthodontics, I would recomend seeing a good cosmetic dentist regarding your concerns (if you still have any).  There isn't much a cosmedic dentist can do while your braces are on, if he can work in conjunction with your orthodontist they should be able to come up with some great solutions to finish up your treatment.
