Single Front Tooth Crown - Can I Expect a Perfect Match and Remedy for Discolored Gum Line? (photo)

January 2, 2013
Asked By:Real650

In 1996 I got a crown on my front tooth. Now I had it replaced(chipped-grinding).It's taken this DDS 4 tries, finally he brought in the lab tech. In natural light it's a perfect match but indoors it seems to be stand out as too white and reflective. My gum line is very dark there and my teeth are very white but translucent. I don't recall my old crown being obvious. How can I make my gum line pink at the crown? Should there be any noticable diff between in natural vs Empress tooth in any light?
