Question about transparent teeth?

Beautiful solutions: When enamel has been lost and becomes very thin the underlying yellow orange dentin is no longer masked by this translucent enamel. It appears transparent. Dental scientist and material experts have developed superior sturdy enamel substitutes in the form of ceramics and ceramic/composite combination. Complete, partial and on lay crowns are first choice. Frequently veneers on front teeth work.

Adding to first ans: Bonded composite restorations can also enhance the look of transparent teeth as a less expensive alternative. However, if you are seeing this transparency just at the edges, that is what labs strive to achieve in creating a natural look. If you do not have any transparency, your teeth tend to be too opaque and look like "chicklets.".
