Not enough room to smile, my top teeth don't show at all. It's uncomfortable. What can I do? (Photo)

Question

The top is my smile and the bottom picture is a visual of what I want. My face is so scrunched up when I smile and it feels uncomfortable and looks cluttered on my face. Like there is not enough room to smile. Is there a procedure that will open things up and give me a smile I want? Would tall veneers fix this?

Hello. The visibility of your teeth is currently low due to the length of the upper lip. However, in such cases, it is possible to lengthen the teeth with Emax /zirconia crown procedures to be performed for all teeth in at least one jaw, which we call vertical dimension increase.Before these are made, we have the chance to see what kind of result this will give with the trial teeth we call mock-up before the teeth are prepared and if both you and we like this design, we proceed to the actual crown production stages accordingly.

Hello, My name is Dr Tyler Hales and I located in Orange County, California. I specialize in smile makeovers and veneers. You have beautiful and full lips that don't correspond with your smile. We could definately add some length with veneers and also create more fullness in the back so that more teeth show and is more uniform. I would recommend a minimum of 10 veneers on top to create that fullness and length and then you have to decide how bright you want to go and do you want your bottom teeth to match. Let me know if you have any other questions.

I understand your concerns about your current smile and the desire for a more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Based on the images you provided, it seems like you're looking for a solution to open your smile and create more space.

While high veneers could be a potential option, I would recommend considering zirconia crowns as a comprehensive solution for a smile transformation. Zirconia crowns not only address the size and shape of the teeth but also provide a durable and natural-looking result. These crowns can be customized to achieve the desired length, improving the overall balance of your smile.

In a total smile makeover with zirconia crowns, an experienced aesthetic dentist, especially in smile transformations, can carefully plan and design the new look, taking into account the proportions of your face and the alignment of your teeth. This can help create a harmonious and comfortable smile that complements your facial features.

I encourage you to schedule a consultation with a dentist specializing in rehabilitation and smile transformations. During the consultation, you can discuss your goals, preferences, and any concerns you may have. The dentist will assess your oral health, facial features, and the current condition of your teeth to determine the most suitable treatment plan for you.

Remember that achieving a beautiful smile is a collaborative process between you and your dentist. Communication is key to ensuring that your expectations are understood and that the final result meets your satisfaction. Additionally, it is crucial to seek a dentist who is an expert in smile transformations. Make sure to choose a professional with specific experience in these procedures and a successful track record in similar cases. The skill and expertise of the dentist are fundamental factors in achieving the desired results in your smile transformation with zirconia crowns.
