A member asked:
I have pretty short front teeth. what are the procedures that i might have done to make them longer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Determine Cause: Is the issue hereditary? Are you grinding away your teeth due to bruxism? Do you have bulbous gingiva? You should visit a local dentist who can examine you, explain why you have short teeth, and what treatment options you have to change your smile.
