Veneer talk tends to centre on the upper teeth. Yet for many people the lower front teeth show plainly during conversation, and they can make or break how a new upper smile looks.
Let's find a time
Veneers are thin custom restorations bonded to the front surfaces of selected teeth to change colour, proportion, edges or spacing. Upper and lower teeth are seen together whenever you speak, and they also meet when you bite. A plan for one arch therefore has to consider the other, both for appearance and for the forces involved.
For Linden Woods residents whose lower teeth are part of the picture, Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street in Winnipeg can assess both rows at once. Sometimes lower veneers are part of the answer; often whitening, reshaping or simply leaving the lower teeth alone works better.

Talking reveals both rows, so their colour and shape are judged as a pair.
Upper edges touch lower teeth, so the bite affects any veneer design.
Treating the upper teeth only is common when the lower ones blend well.
The lower front teeth come into planning in two different ways. Your examination shows which of them applies most.
Lower teeth that show affect what looks natural above them.
Lower teeth also meet the upper ones, which matters for thin restorations.
Crowded lower teeth are often better helped by orthodontics than covered with veneers. Ask whether aligners would change what you need on either row.
The usual stages apply, with the lower teeth recorded and considered even if they end up untouched.
Request your visitPhotographs and scans take in the upper and lower teeth as you speak and smile. The bite, gums and enamel are examined on both arches.
Where a preview is offered, it can show a new upper design next to your current lower teeth, so you can judge whether they still suit.
On whichever teeth go ahead, enamel is shaped conservatively when required, and the prepared teeth are recorded in detail for fabrication.
Every veneer is placed for assessment of fit, appearance and how it meets the opposite teeth. You approve before it is bonded.
Most people only check their upper teeth in a mirror. Watching yourself speak for a minute shows how much the lower teeth contribute.
Your observations help, but whether any lower teeth should be treated is decided only after examining both rows and your bite.
A consultation table with black chairs, and a light blue dental chair.
It is reasonable to ask what the upper plan would look like with your lower teeth as they are now, and what, if anything, you would gain from changing them.
Find out how the upper shade would be chosen to suit your lower teeth.
Ask how your lower teeth would meet the planned upper veneers.
Ask whether whitening or straightening the lower teeth would be a better step.
When both rows are settled
Veneers on the upper, lower or both rows rely on the same daily care, with added attention to the forces between them.
Upper and lower teeth touch constantly. If you clench or grind, ask about a night guard to protect veneers from those forces.
Lower front teeth can be tricky to clean. The natural tooth at each veneer margin can still decay, so brushing and flossing there matter.
Veneers can chip, debond or need replacement over time, and their lifespan varies with your bite and habits.
Phone the clinic about a broken, loose or lost veneer or a painful tooth; the request form is not for urgent problems.

Helpful details about dental veneers in Linden Woods.
Ask our teamA noticeable change in upper colour or shape can make lower teeth stand out more. That is why both rows are considered when shade and design are chosen.
Lower front teeth tend to be small and are often crowded, which affects whether veneers suit them. The dentist can explain what applies to your teeth.
When crowding or position is the issue, orthodontics may be healthier or more conservative than shaping enamel. Ask whether aligners could help either row.
Veneers change the front surface and sometimes the edges, so how the lower teeth meet them is checked during planning and at try-in.
Whitening brightens natural teeth and is often discussed for teeth that are not receiving veneers. Its timing relative to choosing the veneer shade is worth asking about.
Mention your lower teeth when you fill in the form, or call (204) 338-3003. Both arches are examined at our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg after a time is confirmed.
