Grey, broken upper front teeth with gaps restored to a closed, even smile

The upper front teeth show grey-blue shadows inside the central incisors, and both lateral incisors look grey, thin and translucent, one with a brown-stained crack along its edge. There are gaps between all four incisors, through which reddish-brown tissue is visible. The canines are yellow, one with a chipped corner, and the biting edges sit at different heights.

The after photo shows the upper front teeth in one white, even shade, with the gaps closed and the biting edges following the lower lip. The edges of the central incisors have a natural translucency, and the new ceramic restorations match from side to side.

Dr. Marina’s philosophy starts with diagnosis: in a case like this, each grey or cracked tooth is assessed first, including whether its nerve is healthy and whether it can be kept. Only then are the widths of the new teeth planned to close the gaps in proportion to the face, and the work is carried out in sequence so that treatment inside the teeth comes before the final restorations.

The gaps between the front teeth are closed, and the upper teeth now share one white, even shade with no grey shadows or crack lines. The edges are level and follow the curve of the lower lip.
