Dr. Hall,
I had porcelain fused to metal crowns on my front top teeth over 20 years ago, and they now look terrible because you can see the dark line when I smile, and i have a very big smile. Is there anything that I can now do to change this? Would Lumineers work for me? Your advise would really be appreciated. thank you, Joan from New York
Joan,
What you need would be very simple for an expert and artistic cosmetic dentist, but I can’t emphasize strongly enough how important it is that it be an expert cosmetic dentist. Be sure you understand fully the difference between the dentist on the corner who says he or she does cosmetic dentistry and the dentist who is truly artistic, who knows how to create beautiful smiles. See our page, What is a cosmetic dentist?
You need new, all-ceramic crowns, with no metal in them. And this is a great opportunity for you, because if you do this right, you can have an absolutely gorgeous smile.
