A young woman came in today and although we have discussed doing some aesthetic dentistry on her front teeth she has always declined. Well today she tells me that now when she smiles and is photographed the photos clearly show something wrong with the front teeth. This has prompted her to finally get these fixed.
I gave her some choices..none too easy...
1. bond them with tooth colored acrylic..not a bad choice but has a limited lifespan and will probably need rebonding rather often...and the color will be close but not perfect.
2. porcelain veneers or laminates...i can probably get a great color match and this would last a long time without any maintenance needs..but this is much more expensive..
She will think about it and let me know which solution she wants..
Of course being who I am..I gave her a third option which is probably the easiest..Just photoshop the pictures after they are taken!!

And of course here is the photoshopped version...
while I was at it I could have done all the teeth but the front two incisors are all for today.
