Your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westjordanutdentist.com\/cosmetic-dentistry.html\">cosmetic dentist<\/a> can help with treatments designed to give your teeth a more consistent look. To learn more, just keep reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Causes Short Teeth?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Individuals can have short teeth for many different reasons. Some pearly whites are simply born that way! Others become worn down naturally with time, or <em>un<\/em>naturally due to frequent acidic drink consumption or drug abuse. Yet another possibility is that your teeth aren\u2019t necessarily shorter, but your gumline is longer, making them look a bit stumpy. Rest assured, whatever the underlying cause of your uneven smile, your dentist has a solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can My Dentist Help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you want to enhance your dental aesthetics, it\u2019s a good idea to call a cosmetic dentist. Depending on the nature of your situation and your unique preferences, they might recommend one of the following treatments for addressing the size of your teeth:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Dental veneers.<\/strong> These thin, porcelain shells are adhered to the front-facing portion of your teeth. They\u2019re 100% customized, meaning your dentist can manipulate the shape so that your pearly whites appear longer than they actually are.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Metal-free crowns.<\/strong> Though crowns are typically used to protect weak or damaged teeth, it\u2019s possible your bite-sized tooth needs some extra support. In that case, your dentist can use metal-free materials to provide you with an enamel-colored crown.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cosmetic bonding<\/strong>. Alternatively, your dentist can simply add on to your tooth! Cosmetic bonding also uses enamel-colored materials and is essentially a moldable resin that your dentist can sculpt and shape as they please.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To determine which option is best for you, be sure to schedule a consultation with your dentist. This will give you a dedicated time for discussing your expectations and the best way to go about achieving your smile goals. With their professional guidance, you\u2019ll have perfectly even teeth in no time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westjordanutdentist.com\/meet-the-dentists.html\">Frandsen Dental of West Jordan<\/a>, we have not one, not two, but <em>four <\/em>highly experienced dentists that are happy to be of service.
