Your teeth are seen most while you are talking. Weston residents can explore how veneers would work with speech and lip movement, at our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg.
Let's find a time
Photographs show a smile standing still, but few people see yours that way. If your work or social life involves a lot of talking, you may care less about a posed picture and more about how your teeth look mid-sentence, and whether new restorations would affect the way you sound.
Those are sensible things to raise. Lip movement, tooth display and edge position are already part of veneer planning, and anyone from Weston can bring up speech concerns directly with a dentist at our Winnipeg clinic.

How far your lips move decides which teeth people see in everyday speech.
Your tongue and lips work around the front teeth, so edges matter beyond looks.
Telling us how you use your voice lets those needs be considered in the planning.
Planning for a moving smile means thinking about appearance and function at once. Here is why each deserves attention in your case.
The teeth on view while you speak are not always the same ones that show in a wide smile.
A change in tooth length or thickness may feel unfamiliar to the tongue and lips, so it should be discussed ahead of time.
It is helpful to mention whether you sing, teach, present or play a wind instrument, so your dentist knows what you rely on.
Appointments follow the usual stages, with your speaking needs added to the mix. Mention them early so they can be taken into account from the beginning.
Request your visitLet your dentist know how much you talk, who you talk to, and any sounds that already give you trouble.
Your lip movement and tooth display can be seen as you chat, smile and rest, along with your enamel and bite.
Photographs, scans, shade information and bite records establish where things stand now.
A digital or model preview shows proposed lengths and proportions. Ask how the design could affect your edges.
Enamel changes follow the agreed design, and the contacts, shade and fit are verified before the veneers are finished.
A brief phone video of you speaking normally can show which teeth appear, and when. It might feel a little odd to watch, but it could help you explain what you notice about your smile.
Bring up existing speech concerns as well, so changes are not mistakenly linked to treatment later on.
Our waiting area and consultation room.
Your tongue knows your teeth extremely well, so it tends to notice even small changes. If something feels odd or your speech seems affected after treatment, tell your dentist instead of simply putting up with it.
If a big presentation is coming, ask how your appointments might fit around it.
A whistle or slur on certain sounds is useful information for your dentist.
If an edge feels wrong, ask what could be reviewed and whether a change is possible.
After you start talking again
Once treatment is finished, everyday use tells you a lot. Note how things feel and sound, and share anything persistent at your follow-up.
Speech differences that do not settle deserve a conversation, as does anything catching your lip or tongue.
Holding pens, picks or reeds between your teeth can stress restorations, so mention any such habit.
Margins and uncovered tooth surfaces remain prone to decay, and periodic examinations help keep watch over them.
A chip right before a speaking engagement is a good reason to phone the clinic promptly.

Helpful details about veneers in Weston.
Ask our teamIt is a fair concern, and it is hard to predict without looking at your teeth. Edge position, thickness and your own speech all matter. Raise it during planning, and report any change you notice after treatment.
People vary, and your tongue may take time to get used to a new shape. If the feeling persists or speech remains affected, contact the clinic so the fit and contours can be looked at.
A preview is mainly used to evaluate shape and proportion. Ask whether the type used in your case can tell you anything about speech, and what its limits would be.
That varies with your lips and tooth position. Your dentist can observe it directly, and it could affect which teeth are worth considering.
It could, since pressure on front teeth and the position of their edges may be relevant. Tell your dentist what you play and how it sits against your teeth, so it can be included in the assessment.
Phone (204) 338-3003 or make a request on this page, and mention your speech concern. The clinic on McPhillips Street will then follow up about a consultation.
