SMILE is a curved line that can
set everything straight. One of the most attractive features on somebody’s face
is, without doubt, their SMILE.
Hence one needs to be very
careful in maintaining a good and confident smile all through their life.
Dental problems that can ruin your smile:
- Dental caries/cavity on your front teeth
- Broken/fractures front tooth
- Discolored front tooth
- Malaligned front teeth
- Gap between the upper two front teeth
1 Composite or Tooth colored fillings:
When caries
initially begins it shows as a brownish-black discoloration on the tooth. If
your front teeth have caries, then can be excavated and a tooth colored filling
done. The filling done on the front teeth differ from those of back teeth for
the reason of aesthetics. The filling has to match the natural tooth so that there
is no demarcation between the two.
2 Laminates and Veneers:
If the tooth has
fractured, discolored or has a gap between the front teeth which cannot be
fixed with a filling the next option is a laminate or veneer. Here the labial
or front surface of the tooth is prepared to receive a coating or a thin sheet
of laminate which is cemented on to the tooth surface. It looks very natural
and is more resistant to dislodgment since the front surface of the tooth is
prepared.
If the destruction of the tooth is more when a laminate cannot be given, The next option available is a crown. While making a crown the tooth is reduced
from all sides to a miniature size. The crown that replaces it will be the same
size as that of your natural tooth. E Max or Zirconia crowns can be made which
have a very close match to the natural tooth in color, hue, transparency and
contrast.

mentioned three techniques, you will need to get your teeth corrected with
