Looking at the crowns, they do not look horrible; actually, they look pretty good. However, good is a relative term. If you were looking for awesome white flawless teeth, then the crowns are a huge fail. But if you had stains or chipped teeth previously, then your crowns are great. My advice would be to be as specific as possible about exactly what you do not like about the crowns, so that you can describe this to your dentist. If he/she offers any guarantee or warranty on work done, then you may be able to get a replacement or a redo at no cost. If no such guarantee is offered, then there may be a charge, depending on the circumstances and how long you have had them. Hurry back to your dentist because you have a much better chance of working things out if you don't wait several weeks from the date they were first placed. Good luck and I hope this helps.

You have 2 things here one is the gum line related with the cuspids and bicuspids, see how different it is. Once you make them even with a gum contour you will determine the height of crowns, and my suggestion is to perform at least 8, crowns and veneers so you can change shape size and even color. You will love your smile with something like this, hope this helps.
It is not that the crowns are too big. The problem is that you need more done. A smile cannot be fixed by only doing the 4 front teeth. Your arch narrows as it goes to the back of the mouth. Your eye teeth are barely visible. In order to fix your smile I would recommend you have at least 4 more crowns or veneers done to broaden your smile and balance the size of the front teeth. These would be done on the cuspid and first bicupids. An experienced cosmetic dentist is necessary. Make sure that the dentist that you choose has the necessary advanced training to give you the best result. Do not choose on price -- you will not be happy in the long run.
You have a nice smile with some irregularities. Go talk to a progressive orthodontist and see if simple minor tooth movement with a retainer or Invisalign will help you. I hate to see you shorten the 2 front teeth but you can talk to a Cosmetic Dentist and ask them what they think...
I would you suggest you ask your dentist again to shorten the longer tooth. It should be a very simple thing to do and cost you nothing. If they are not willing to do it you might consult another dentist who will. You look like you are very young. To do a procedure like...
S.A.R.P.E stands for Surgically Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion. This technique combines surgery with orthodontic treatment to provide a larger palate to correct problems such as lateral crossbite and crowding of the upper arches.Unfortunately, as seen in the photograph, there hasn't been...
