I snapped my tooth in my teens and had a replacement fitted. Is there anything possible to fix this horrible fake tooth?
Q. Hi. I snapped my front tooth in my teens so had to have another built on (with a screw, if that sounds right?! sorry it was a few years ago) and it is hideous as it’s sometime grey in colour and was fitted a bit wonky. It doesn’t help I have a massive overbite and ‘fangs’ that have turned around 90 degrees. Basically, I have awful teeth! How likely is it that I could have anything fixed, within a reasonable amount of time, with this horrible fake tooth? or even teeth whitening as a short term confidence booster?,
A. it sounds as though you have a post crown where the toth snaped. the best long term option would be a dental implant. They can look very aesthetic and is the next best thing to a real tooth. Whitening is also a god option to ift and brighten your smile. Just remember that if the crown is to be replaced, then the whitening needs to be done before hand so that the crown matched your newer shade of teeth.
