Do Veneers Affect Your Face Shape?

Veneers can have a noticeable impact on your face shape by enhancing your smile and contributing to overall facial symmetry. This cosmetic treatments consists of  thin, custom-made shells placed over your natural teeth to correct a variety of cosmetic concerns, such as discoloration, gaps, and misaligned teeth. While veneers primarily improve the appearance of your smile, they also play a role in how your face looks.

Length and Shape of Your Teeth

Teeth play a critical part in supporting the lower half of your face. Over time, factors such as tooth wear, grinding, or tooth loss can cause changes in your face shape, making it appear shorter or more sunken. Veneers can restore the length and shape of your teeth, adding more fullness to your face. By correcting the size or position of your teeth, they can help create a more balanced and youthful appearance.

Crooked or Uneven Teeth Correction

Additionally, veneers can address crooked or uneven teeth that affect your facial symmetry. By aligning your teeth, they add more balance to your smile and improve symmetry with the rest of your facial features.  Whether you have small teeth that make your face look less proportionate or you want to improve your overall look, this option makes a significant difference.
