Can I Keep my Gap if I Get Veneers?

We try to always get input from each patient on how they want their teeth to look. It is YOUR smile, so it is YOUR goals that matter. Some people really like their gap or other imperfections, and I really enjoy doing something different.
Some people like their gaps, some don't want teeth very white at all. These tend to be the more fun cases, as they show that smile design is NOT cookie cutter.
You want it, you got it!

Yes you can keep the gap between your front teeth. The veneers can be made any width you choose (within reason).

So if you want to keep the gap, just let your dentist know so that they can plan the case properly and let the laboratory know how to fabricate the veneers.

Yes, Make sure you have a good communication with your dentist and explain exactly what you want. They can always do wax ups of your teeth so you can decide on how much gap you want. It is definitely a personal preference.

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.
