Before Treatment: Uneven Front Teeth Creating an Unbalanced Smile

This patient came to Dr. John Ku seeking a subtle cosmetic improvement to address unevenness in their two front teeth. Minor differences in tooth length and shape caused the front teeth to appear asymmetrical, affecting the overall balance of the smile. The uneven edges also created a less polished appearance, making the patient feel self-conscious about their smile.

After Treatment: Enameloplasty Creates Smooth, Balanced Front Teeth

Dr. John Ku performed enameloplasty, a conservative cosmetic dentistry procedure that gently reshapes the outer enamel of the teeth to improve symmetry and aesthetics. By carefully contouring the edges of the two front teeth, he was able to create a more balanced, uniform appearance while preserving the natural tooth structure.

The result is a smoother, more harmonious smile with front teeth that are better proportioned and aesthetically aligned. The subtle refinements made through enameloplasty enhanced the overall appearance of the smile without the need for veneers, crowns, or other restorative treatments. Thanks to Dr. John Ku's expertise in cosmetic dentistry and tooth contouring, the patient now enjoys a naturally beautiful smile with improved symmetry and confidence.
