While many people are fortunately able to avoid these problems, having small teeth impacts the appearance of their smile.

Here are the three categories of the condition:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>True generalized <\/strong>\u2013 All of the teeth are smaller than average. This is usually brought on by a condition called pituitary dwarfism (a growth hormone deficiency).<\/li><li><strong>Relative generalized <\/strong>\u2013 Teeth may be normal in size but appear small in comparison to a larger than normal jaw, or the gums extend too far over the teeth.<\/li><li><strong>Localized <\/strong>\u2013 This is the most common type of microdontia (usually seen in the upper teeth), where only one or several teeth are affected.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter which group your smile flaws fit into, what\u2019s most important is to know that they can be addressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Porcelain Veneers Can Help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A form of cosmetic dentistry, porcelain veneers are thin ceramic shells that are custom designed to fit naturally into your smile line. A cosmetic dentist achieves this by ensuring that the veneers match the color and shape of the surrounding teeth. Their low-profile, slim design allows veneers to mask smile flaws and create the appearance of larger teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How the Porcelain Veneers Procedure Works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The dentist will start by removing a thin layer of enamel (usually around \u00bd mm). This will allow the veneers to fit flush with the other teeth. Then, bite impressions will be taken and sent to a trusted lab that specializes in fabricating veneers. This usually takes around two weeks to complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To prevent any damage to your teeth while you wait on the finished veneers to arrive from the lab, the dentist will place temporary veneers. During this time, it\u2019s best to avoid eating hard, crunchy, chewy or darkly pigmented foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the finished veneers arrive, the dentist will place them using dental cement. Once they\u2019re in position, any necessary final adjustments will be made. This may include perfecting the shape and alignment of the veneers to create an aesthetically pleasing smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a solution for your small teeth, reach out to a cosmetic dentist in Parsippany. With your smile upgraded, you can look forward to experiencing a more confident life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Alan Rauchberg earned his dental degree from the Temple University School of Dentistry.
