How to Fix a Snaggle Tooth
About the Treatments that Created this Even White Smile
The patient’s desire to have a whiter smile as well as straight even teeth, the use of composite resin veneers solved both issues. The composite resin was coloured matched to the whiteness that the patient wanted and would best match the rest of his teeth to create a natural looking whiter smile.
A 51 year old patient came to our dental clinic because he wanted to improve the look of his teeth.
Patient had Composite resin veneers placed on his upper front 4 teeth. This was done in a single appointment.
Composite Resin Veneers
After extensive consultation with the patient to discuss all the options available to them, the patient decided to have composite veneers applied.
Also called, Composite Resin direct bonding; having composite veneers applied only takes one appointment to achieve beautiful smile results.
The patient liked the idea that this treatment could be reserved and would also give him the ability to have a whiter smile without bleaching.
Each tooth was carefully reshaped with each bonding process to craft an even smile and balance out the patients teeth, without moving or altering the teeth underneath.
