What can be done to fix rotated, misshapen or chipped teeth?
Chipped or misshapen teeth can ruin an otherwise pleasing smile. The long-term restoration of choice is porcelain veneers. A less expensive (but less durable) option may be a bonding, which can usually be performed in one visit. Done properly, both porcelain veneers and bonding can be applied, color-matched and shaped to make your teeth appear natural again.

The long term restoration of choice is porcelain veneers. A less expensive but less dramatic option in certain cases may be bonding. Done properly, both veneers and bonding can be applied; color matched and shaped to make your teeth appear natural again. The shape of the face affects the shape of the teeth. For example, if a patient has a round face, we create long square-shaped teeth that give the illusion of a longer face, thus a slimming effect. Porcelain veneers are ideal for changing the shape of teeth, and you can lighten the color at the same time. If you have existing dental work or very misaligned teeth you can still change the shape of your teeth but you may need orthodontics, a reshaping of your gum line or crowns to achieve the desired results.
