Small or narrow teeth
Cosmetic & Orthodontics for Scotia Heights Residents
If some of your teeth have always looked slim, short or out of step with the others, there may be ways to rebalance them. Talk it through at our clinic on McPhillips Street.

A question of proportion
Width and length rarely get judged alone.
A tooth reads as small mostly in comparison with whatever sits beside it, and with how your lips and gums frame it. That means the fix might involve added resin, a veneer, moving a neighbouring tooth, or adjusting a gumline that covers part of the crown.
Residents of Scotia Heights, an area in Winnipeg, can explore those choices at Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street. You will be asked what bothers you and what you would like to keep, and the dentist will weigh that against your enamel, bite and spacing.

Resin can add width
A narrow tooth may gain a more natural relationship with its neighbour through sculpted composite, where the bite allows.
Too much bulk backfires
Overbuilding can look unnatural and trap plaque, which is why added material has sensible limits.
Gum may be covering some
Sometimes gum tissue still covers part of a crown after eruption, making a tooth seem shorter than it truly is.

Working out proportions
Look at the whole row, not one tooth.
Your first appointment gives everyone a shared view of how your teeth relate, before a particular treatment comes up.
Request your visit- 01
Name the teeth you would change
When contacting the clinic, describe the teeth that seem small to you. Saying they have looked this way for as long as you can recall is helpful too.
- 02
Let spacing and gums be checked
The exam covers neighbouring teeth, available room, gum levels, enamel health and how edges meet when you close.
- 03
Compare how each change would look
Previewing proportions, digitally or on a model, can be part of planning a veneer. The trade-offs for resin and tooth movement are explained as well.

Helpful details about cosmetic & orthodontics in Scotia Heights.
Ask our teamCan a narrow tooth be made wider?
Often it can be, when proportions and the bite allow. Tooth-coloured resin may add width directly, while a veneer offers broader control over shape at a greater commitment.
Is there a limit to how much can be added?
Yes. Excess width may create poor proportions, plaque traps or bite interference, and a dentist will say when a space or size difference needs another plan.
Can reshaping help a tooth that looks too small?
Contouring only removes enamel, so it cannot lengthen or widen anything. It may have a supporting role if a neighbouring point or edge exaggerates the difference.
Would moving my teeth change their apparent size?
Aligners do not resize a tooth, though redistributing space around it can make later bonding or veneers more sensible. Whether that applies is settled at your assessment.
How do I know if gum tissue is covering my teeth?
Careful measurement and photos help locate the enamel beneath the gum. If bone position is unclear, a dentist may use bone sounding or imaging before suggesting anything.
