Dentist recommended 4 dental crowns after Invisalign. Is this the best approach? (Photo)

Optimistic2439Oct 8, 2020
I just finished invisalign to improve my smile. During treatment, the front laterals were pushed out to create spacing with the intent to use bonding to bulk them up. They are now recommending 4 crowns instead as the teeth have multiple fillings and to better match color. It looks like there’s still 70% of the original tooth after fillings. I’m only 28, so I’m hesitant to undergo something so invasive. Would 3/4 crowns, veneers or bonding be better if the primary goal is cosmetic?

According to the pictures, in your specific case porcelain veneers or crowns also can be applied. This depends on the health of your teeth and gums. If there is too much caries and dental stones crowns can be better after cleaning all the caries and dental stones. You can still wear retainers...

OM3 is a beautiful bleached shade that looks white without looking fake on the majority of people. Of course, it depends on your skin tone. But for the most people this is the best shade.
