I am not happy with the shape of my bridge, can I have it changed?
Q.
Hi – I am having a fixed bridge across my 7 front teeth. I went to have this fitted yesterday but didn’t due to the fact I was not happy with the appearance. Teeth 1&2 are too rounded in shape at the sides & the fronts of the teeth are to rounded or bevelled. Is it too late for the lab to change these? I don’t want to look as though I have brought a set of hollywood teeth. I just want to have healthy looking natural teeth. I think these look fake. Any advice would be appreciated. Many thanks

Hi
As long as they have not been cemented on permanently anything is possible. I would advise your dentist making a copy of the bridge provided in temporary material, then adding and adjusting to thus to give you the shape you want. Then a photo and mould of this can be taken to show the lab what you desire.
You can just tell the lab to adjust and see what they send back.
As these are all handmade there will always be variation in shape and design.

I’ve recently had a bridge permanently cemented across the front four of my teeth.
I am unhappy with the shape. Is it possible to have it removed so that the lab can make adjustments, or is it too late now?
Please help!!!
