Hi Dr Patel. My question is: Can we reduce the size of the front teeth by clipping them down or some other means? My age is 23 years. At this age is there any possibility of reduction in size of teeth? What are the chances of reduction of big front teeth at this age? What is the criteria and deciding factors for reducing the front teeth size? Are there any long term effects of this treatment? I would really like to reduce the size of my front teeth and I would like your advice. Thank you for your time.

Can I Reduce The Size Of My Front Teeth By Clipping Them Down Or By Some Other Means?
Thursday, August 7th, 2014I’ve Been Told That My Teeth May Need To Be Contoured After Invisalign Treatment. Is This Correct?
Tuesday, March 25th, 2014Hello,
I am a 50 year old female in good health and with good teeth.
I am considering having the Invisalign treatment to straighten my front teeth, which are not straight and overlap slightly.
A relative who has recently had this treatment has advised me that after my teeth are straightened they will be different lengths and may need contouring?
What does this mean and is this correct?
Thank you!
What Portion Of My Teeth Would Be Discarded If I Went For Crowns?
Wednesday, May 1st, 2013 Hello doc. I am 37 yrs old .my front two teeth are not only bigger in size when compared to others but they are inclined a bit forward too.At this age I don’t want to go for braces or total cosmetic change.can contouring of these teeth be done? According to my local dentist my teeth are otherwise healthy .but one of the upper incisor has crowning, right-side of the upper
jaw (canine) was missing , so here is a bridging too. My main concern is an overbite because of the two teeth.and if I opt for the cosmetic change like crown of the upper central teeth, how much of the original teeth will be discarded
Please guide me on this.
Thank you.
My new crown feels too big for my mouth, can I have it filed back?
Tuesday, October 4th, 2011I recently had porcelain to metal crown put on to cover an existing tooth that already had a large cavity. The tooth covered was an upper back tooth. The bite feels normal; however the outside out the crown feels like it protrudes from the rest of the teeth. My dentist said this is normal but I feel self conscious like I have a big tooth. Can the crown be filed or smoothed down so that it is flush with the rest of the teeth? Will filing down the outside of the tooth damage the crown?
Teeth whitening treatments don’t seem to be working, would lumineers be a good option?
Tuesday, September 6th, 2011My teeth and gums are healthy I do have one implant at the front which Im very pleased with and one crown which is doing fine. I have some filling but my main complaint now is I really want white teeth as ive tryed whitening treatment but not enough of a change for me I want something to work quickly and be how I want to look from the start. My teeth are very straight and I was thinking that Lumineers may be the way forward as I dont want my teeth worked on or to much preparation if possible. Plus would I have to do something with the Implant and Crown or can this go over the top.
