Living with a gummy smile or what appears to be \u201cshort,\u201d \u201cstubby\u201d teeth can lead to a lack of self-confidence, causing you to feel embarrassed by your smile. It might seem as if there is no clear solution to address this issue, but many dentists offer veneers as a way to elongate teeth. Learn how these customized restorations can fix short teeth<\/a> and get you on your way to feeling better about your appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What Causes Teeth to Appear Short?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you regularly grind your teeth? Do you aggressively brush your teeth or practice harmful habits that wear down tooth enamel? If so, there is a good chance one or more of these issues may be causing your teeth to appear short. It\u2019s also possible that your gum tissue may be growing longer, forming what is known as a gummy smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The consumption of acidic foods on a regular basis as well as drug abuse can also be culprits for worn-down tooth enamel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although you will not notice the difference overnight, this wearing away of your tooth enamel or elongating of your gums will slowly happen, resulting in less-than-satisfied appearances as you get older.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are Short Teeth an Oral Health Concern?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While some individuals are born with what appear to be short teeth, they are nothing to worry about if a dentist doesn\u2019t find that their oral health is at risk. However, if shorter teeth cause an unhealthy bite to form, you may be left with chronic jaw pain or temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD). You might also suffer from increased tooth sensitivity if the enamel continues to wear down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Can Veneers Help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By opting for customized veneers, these thin sheath coverings can be placed over the front surfaces of teeth to help elongate your pearly whites. Instead of continuing to see shorter teeth in the mirror each day, your veneers will be crafted to match the size and shape you desire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When working with your cosmetic dentist to create your new smile, they will take various measurements to ensure that lab technicians deliver natural-looking restorations that look beautiful and feel comfortable once they are put into place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And because veneers are known to be highly durable and resistant to stains, they can remain in place for 10 years or more as long as you take proper care of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t let short teeth cause you to feel embarrassed any longer. Take charge of your smile and ask your dentist about whether veneers are right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
