My teeth seem small when I smile. Could veneers change that?+
Veneers may alter the visible length and proportion of selected front teeth, but how much of a tooth shows is also shaped by your lips and gums. An examination is what tells you which of those matters in your smile.
What does the midline mean?+
It is the vertical centre of your smile, usually between the two upper front teeth. It is one of several reference points a design considers, along with tooth display and gum levels.
Why would my gum levels matter for a veneer?+
Gums frame the top of every tooth and contribute to the rhythm of a smile. Uneven levels can change how equal two teeth look, so they are reviewed along with the teeth.
Is the plan the same for everyone with a similar face shape?+
No. Face shape is only one input, and your bite, enamel, existing dental work and personal taste all affect the design. Expect the plan to be specific to you.
Could a change in shape make me look unlike myself?+
That is a fair worry, and it is why step one asks what should stay yours. Previewing proposed shapes gives you a chance to react before any preparation takes place.
