You may see how your teeth might be smaller compared to those around you, but this trait can make you self-conscious. While you may want to hide away your grin, you should get to the bottom of this issue. That way, you can get an effective solution to fix them, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.troisidentistry.com\/veneers.html\">veneers<\/a>. Here\u2019s a guide on all you should know about this imperfection and ways to get a balanced look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Do My Teeth Look Small?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before diving into the several solutions for small-looking teeth, it\u2019s important to understand what caused it in the first place. These are some culprits that may be at large:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You may <strong>grind or clench your teeth<\/strong> during the night, but this can be trouble for your grin. This habit is also known as bruxism, but it can lead to increased wear and tear, which makes these structures look more worn. A nightguard can be helpful in reducing damage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chips along the edge of a tooth<\/strong> can affect its height, so it can look shorter than the rest.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dental development issues and genetics <\/strong>can come into play, as you may have an excess of soft tissue in your mouth. Misalignment may also be a cause for some people.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So, How Can I Fix My Small-Looking Teeth?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several reasons that may be behind your small teeth, but the good news is that there is a wide range of treatments that can give you the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.troisidentistry.com\/cosmetic-dentistry.html\">aesthetic smile<\/a> you dream of. These are some to consider:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Veneers<\/strong>: These are durable shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth. They hide away flaws underneath them and give you a dramatic transformation. Better yet, you can customize their shape, size, and color; that way, you enjoy confident results that can last for up to 15 years with proper care<strong>.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cosmetic Dental Bonding<\/strong>: If it\u2019s just a single tooth or two you need fixed up, then this service may be best. Using composite resin, your provider can sculpt it against the edge of the structure and increase its length.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Invisalign<\/strong>: Clear aligners can be great if crookedness is the cause. By straightening your grin, you can help it be more balanced.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Gum Recontouring<\/strong>: In this treatment, your dentist will remove excess gum tissue to expose more of the structure it was covering. That way, you can even out your gumline and get a more symmetrical look.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter the cause of your small-looking teeth, there are ways you can fix them. By finding out the cause, you can then figure out which cosmetic service is right for you; that way, you get rid of this flaw and flaunt a prouder smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.troisidentistry.com\/about-us.html\">Troisi Dentistry<\/a>, our team is proud to serve patients throughout the Chesapeake community.
