Asking for Self, Female, 28 years old, lahore

My front upper both teeth are long, wide and out from other teeth. Although I know I need braces to set them down. But I want to trim down the length of front 2 teeth. Is it possible to trim them from sides and from bottom to get some good shape ?

it can be done with your written consent. but ideally we would not suggest you.
well your esthetics can improve alot if you get your orthodontic treatment.

It is not recommended at all to trim teeth like that. You should visit an orthodontist and get the ortho treatment started to get this taken care of.

Aoa. Thanks for contacting us. It's possible to trim but we need clinical
examination as a bit more trimming may lead to sensitivity or pain. So
contact MARHAM for appointment.

aesthetics or beautuful teeth need proportion of length and width .
if we trim without considering besides sensitivity will look ugly. better have visit and book appointment.

Trimming ur teeth will cause sensitivity to your teeth its recomended to visit your orthodontics he will guide you and plan your treatment accordingly

No never get them trimmed ..they are beautiful ..ideal in shape ..
The reason for un esthetic appearance is that that your lateral incisor needs a build up to come into alignment .
And your deepbite correction by orthodontist will be perfect for your esthetic concern .
Never ever get them trimmed.
Otherwise the whole smile will look total flat .
Now by Aligners you shouldnt be worried about braces ..just get a consultation for Aligners ..
And go for upper lateral incisor build up

Pls book an appointment through marham
i would love to do the case .
However your front teeth shape is the ideal any one could have .
What ever u make your mind
.but never get triming done .

Thank you so much for your kind response.. I will definitely not go for bottom trimming.. I went to doctor for aligners he said that your few teeth need trimming little bit from sides for alignmengs instead of tooth extraction. May b just 1 to 5 ml of trimming. Now my mother is worried that trimming is not OK for me... Please pour your advise

Trimming ur natural front teeth is never advised by any professional
take care of oral health and consult some Dentist

Braces are always the first line of treatment however it can also be treated through cown and bridges to bring them in alignment and make them look asthetically good

If ur dentist has advised so then you can go for it as i cannot comment on it without examination .. Because in ur case ur asthetics require improvement by any means
