Can I Keep my Gap if I Get Veneers?

One of the beautiful things about porcelain veneers is that they can be made to look any way that you want.  There is a lot of room for customizing colour, shape, length, straightness, etc.  They can look as natural or "un"natural as you want.

I remember a number of years ago, I had a patient who requested porcelain veneers to close a gap between his front teeth.  He had a job in the public eye and did not like the appearance of his teeth on TV.  The day we were to insert the veneers he told me that his wife had told him how much she liked the look of his space.  As a compromise we put in the veneers and opened the space slightly.  The end result was a space but much smaller than the original.  He and his wife were both very happy. 

Yes, you can have veneers and keep the slight gap between your front teeth.  Keep your uniqueness.  Not everyone should look the same.  Smile design is based on your facial from and structure along with your desired results.
