Visitor asks:

I am 14 years old and I do not have lateral incisors. With fixed braces they moved the canines as close to the central incisors as possible, but there is still space between them and of course the teeth have a pointed shape. How could this be corrected?
Thank you for the advice.
Kind regards.

Dear Sir/Madam!

The shape of dental crowns can be changed in various ways:
-build-up with composite materials is a quick, simple and non-radical solution, but over the years the material may become slightly discoloured, and we are also limited by the thickness of the added material, the type of bite...
-making aesthetic veneers or crowns is a more durable and more refined solution, but the fabrication procedure requires intervention in hard dental tissues (preparation).

Have a nice day!
