I have congenitally missing lateral incisors, 15 yrs ago, I had composite bonding applied to my canines to make them look like incisors. I'd like to get my smile to look more straight and natural, but I really don't want to go through widening the space with braces and putting in implants where the incisor should be. Would veneers be an option? I'm a bit hesitant because I don't want teeth that appear too large for my mouth. Because I'm missing those incisors, my space is already quite narrow.

Answer: Veneers for missing laterals. You can do a beautiful esthetic smile makeover with multiple veneers and can also widen your smile. Make sure you see a dentist who understands occlusion and TMJ disorders very well to avoid problems. You upper jaw (maxilla) is so narrow I would rather see you utilize a DNA Appliance to create a full wide smile, eliminate your crossbite and offer much better lip support.Ira L Shapira DDS, D,ABDSM, D,ABDSM, FICCMO

Answer: Veneers or Crowns To Correct For Missing Lateral Incisors Yes, veneers can create a very beautiful and natural smile. I would recommend that you get Invisalign or traditional braces, depending on your preference, to expand your arch to show more posterior teeth which would brighten your smile; make it pop, so to speak. Doing this would not create any space in the anterior and no implants would be necessary. Canines are not lateral incisors, they are larger, but with the proper restorative dentist and dental lab, the resulting veneers or crowns, would be very attractive. Btw, the reason I recommend orthodontics is not only to expand the arch, but also correct the crossbite on your left canine. This will be very important to the long term success of your restorative treatment (veneers or crowns). Furthermore, it may be possible to compensate for your midline discrepancy as well. Your two central incisors are shifted to the right. If you are going all in for a cosmetic make over, take the time to do things right. You will appreciate the results! The small things do matter in your smile. Wishing you nothing but the best, in your smile and in your life!
