Anterior Teeth

The 12 teeth at the front of your mouth (6 upper, 6 lower). This group includes the Central Incisors, Lateral Incisors, and Canines (Cuspids).

Why It Matters

These are the teeth people see when you smile or talk. Restoring them requires high artistry. We prioritize translucency and shape (using E-Max or Veneers) over the brute strength needed for back teeth.

Clinical Details

Function: Biting, tearing food, and phonetics (speech sounds).
Aesthetics: Highly visible; treatments here define your "Smile Design."

FAQ

What are anterior teeth used for?
