Claire came to us dissatisfied with bulky veneers she had received years ago, and after a thorough smile analysis, we replaced them with new veneers that perfectly matched her smile. We also corrected her twisted tooth using a conservative composite veneer. The transformation left Claire in tears of joy, finally confident in her smile.
Claire’s Veneer Makeover
Claire came to us unhappy with the porcelain veneers she had received seven years ago. She felt they were too bulky and large, which made her uncomfortable smiling without covering her mouth. The first piece of advice we gave her was to return to her previous dentist to give him a chance to remedy the smile. However, Claire refused, explaining that when she raised her concerns with him seven years ago, he disagreed and insisted the veneers were perfect. We therefore proceeded with a thorough smile analysis for her, and we discussed all her treatment options.
Treatment Plan:
The best option for Claire was to replace her two porcelain veneers with new ones that were the correct shape and shade to suit her smile. Claire also mentioned that her front middle tooth was slightly twisted, and she didn’t like its appearance.
To correct this, we used a very conservative approach called a composite veneer, which requires little to no damage to the tooth. This allowed us to align her middle tooth with the rest of her teeth and match its shade perfectly.
Claire’s Transformation:
Claire accepted the treatment plan, and the final result was emotional for everyone in the room at the reveal. She expressed her happiness with tears, finally feeling confident to smile without hesitation.
