When Francisco came to our clinic, his main concern was the proportion of his teeth. His upper lateral incisors were visibly smaller compared to the rest of his smile, creating gaps that disrupted facial harmony. This condition is known in dentistry as microdontia, where one or more teeth are smaller than usual, affecting not only aesthetics but also the overall perception of the smile.
For his case, Dr. Daniel Zabaleta designed a personalized and minimally invasive solution: direct composite veneers. With this technique, each veneer is meticulously sculpted directly onto the tooth, ensuring that every detail—shape, texture, and translucency—is carefully crafted for the most natural result. At Sonrisa Italiana, we use advanced composite layering techniques, which allow us to recreate the depth and luminosity of healthy enamel, achieving restorations that don’t just enhance the smile but seamlessly blend with the patient’s natural features.
Francisco’s transformation went beyond aesthetics. His renewed smile gave him more confidence, and that confidence reflected in his expression. Now, his face looks more relaxed—not just because his dental proportions are in harmony, but because he feels better about himself. And when you feel good, it shows.
