Q. Hey, i am interested on getting some cosmetic dentistry work done in the coming months – Basically i am unhappy with the length on my central and lateral incisors, i have always been of this opinion, i had braces when i was younger, and am very happy with the position of the teeth. They are just too big in a length way!I am now 24 and want to get it sorted out, is there any way i can have them filed down maybe 2mm, i don’t think i need veneers, they seem expensive. I think it would greatly help my self esteem. If i can get this done what do i inquire about to a cosmetic dentist? and would you have a vague idea of how much this procedure would cost? Thanks so much.
A. unfortunatley you can’t just file the teeth down, except very small amounts, as this often makes the teeth very sensitive. I would try to find someone local to you for a proper assessment and a detailed quote before embarking on any further treatment.
