If your teeth feel like they’re getting shorter each year, it’s often more than just “aging.” In many cases, it’s the result of long-term wear from a bite that has slowly collapsed over time.
A few subtle signs to look for:
• Teeth appearing shorter, thinner, or more translucent at the edges
• Small notches near the gumline from excess pressure or clenching
• A smile that feels less supported or less visible than it used to
When teeth wear down, it doesn’t just change the appearance of your smile. It can also affect facial support, proportions, and overall function.
For the right candidate, veneers can do more than enhance aesthetics. They can help rebuild support, restore balance, and create a more stable, functional bite.
One of the most meaningful parts of cosmetic dentistry is that sometimes we’re not just improving a smile, we’re rebuilding structure that’s been gradually worn down over time.
If you’re noticing any of these signs, I’d love to help you address them! 🫶
