Before and after transformations go far beyond a whiter shade… they are about designing balance, flow, and a smile that feels alive.
This patient came to us with composite veneers that had completed their cycle. The resin was stained, uneven in brightness, and most importantly, it had left her with a flat smile line. That flatness made her expression look static and less natural. The decision was clear: it was time to move from resin to ceramic veneers.
A Smile Curve that Matches the Lower Lip
What makes this case truly special is the new consonant smile line. With composites, her smile followed a straight path. Now, with ceramic veneers, the curve is aligned with her lower lip, giving her expression rhythm and elegance. This detail might seem subtle, but it completely changes how a smile interacts with the face.
Why ceramic instead of composite?
While composite veneers are a common first step, they stain and lose shine as the years go by. Ceramic, on the other hand, offers:
- Long-lasting brightness that resists discoloration.
- A natural reflection of light, just like enamel.
- Greater durability for everyday function.
This ceramic veneers before and after case shows the contrast clearly: a flat, dull smile turned into one with harmony, shine, and realism.
A Full Design: upper and lower ceramic veneers
Another key factor in this transformation was addressing both the upper and lower teeth. By working on both arches, we created a uniform tone and ensured balance in every movement of her smile.
The chosen shade was deliberately natural—not overly white, not artificial. The goal was a timeless smile: radiant, but believable.
The art of a natural smile
This case demonstrates the power of aesthetic dentistry: not to impose, but to reveal. With ceramic teeth, the patient now enjoys a smile that feels lighter, softer, and in perfect consonance with her features.
This is the beauty of ceramic veneers before and after: turning a flat curve into harmony, and a worn material into lasting elegance.
