Widen smile? I’ve already had Invisalign wondering what my options would be to make my smile wider. (Photo)

Question

There are gaps between my cheek and teeth on the sides.

Brad Lockhart, DDS · Answer

Ideally, you would have addressed this concern before braces. However, you can still broaden your smile with arch development. This is done using a simple, comfortable, removable appliance. This appliance will widen your dental arch and as the dental arch is widened your smile will become broader.Good luck!

John A. Merrill, DDS · Answer

You are correct that there is a deficiency along your buccal corridors displaying a dark space instead of bright teeth.Your options are to consider more orthodontics if a specialist believes that this is an option for you.You can also add porcelain or composite to bring out the teeth as well--this would be a nice option and a cosmetic dentist can actually show this effect to you before you do it by digital photos or mock ups in your mouth.Good luck to you!
