Right canine is much higher than other teeth. Braces and Invisalign haven’t helped. Would bonding make it look longer? (photos)

My right canine is much higher than my other teeth and I’m pretty self conscious about it. I’ve had both braces and Invisalign to try to bring it down, but they haven’t worked. Would bonding to make it look longer work?

It is possible that the composite used for your latest bonding is translucent that allows the darkness of the oral cavity to show through the material. It may need to be replaced with a white, opaque material.

Hello!Well the one in the previous part where your thread gets stuck if you go with your dentist because it ends up falling or getting food, maybe it's just very simple and you need to polish. You have very little with them. I do not think it's a big problem.Good luck! DDS Zalli Bojorquez

If your lateral incisors at one point before they wore were the same length as your centrals and you liked the appearance, then absolutely go for it.  Check some old photos of your smile to see.  However, in general lateral incisors are not the same length as centrals.
