Anyone ever had there teeth 'filed down' by a dentidst?!
Question: Anyone ever had there teeth 'filed down' by a dentidst.?
Hi there
I have a very small chip on one of my front teeth..
My dentisit said I have 2 options: either fill the chip in which does not last very long or file the 2 front teeth down slightly to even it all out.. He said they would only need half a millimeter filed off..
I dont like the appearance of my front teeth because they stick out slightly and are slightly longer than the other teeth so I feel that I look like Bugs Bunny lol!
So I quite like the sound of getting them shortened slightly..
I should have wore a brace when I was little but my mum kept forgetting to take me to orthodentist appointments so it didnt happen..
When I was younger I had my chip filled in and it fell out a few years later..
Anyway if I have my teeth filed down it may improve the bugs bunny look but im worried that this will seriously damage my teeth (even though a dentist has recommended it)
Has anyone out there had there teeth filed.? where you happy/unhappy with the results.? are your teeth really sensitive nowHealth Question & Answer

Answers:
I haven't had any at the front filed but I had a chip or two at the back left done.. It was simple, quick, painless and I've had no ill-effects - and I think if it's going to be as little as half a millimetre(!) anyway, no-one else will even see the difference, in all likelihood.. Get it done by all means..
It's never too late to have a brace, either, if your choppers are really bothering you..Health Question & Answer

My two incisors were fang like.. I could imitate a vampire pretty good.. I requested they be filed down and I am happy with the results.. It didn't hurt to have it done and didn't take any time.. So, I recommend that option..Health Question & Answer

I would get either a crown done or a veneer..
