Peg Lateral Tooth Correction at Spring Creek Dental

Are you self-conscious about small, peg-shaped teeth affecting your smile? You might have peg lateral teeth, a common condition where the upper lateral incisors don’t fully develop, leaving them noticeably smaller than the surrounding teeth. At Spring Creek Dental in Fort Collins, CO, we offer a gentle, effective solution: composite bonding. This minimally invasive treatment uses tooth-colored materials to reshape your teeth, giving you a natural, confident smile.
What Are Peg Lateral Teeth?
Peg lateral teeth occur when the upper lateral incisors fail to grow to their full size, resulting in a small, peg-like appearance. Since these teeth are front and center, they can be a source of insecurity for many people. Fortunately, with modern dentistry, correcting peg laterals is straightforward and doesn’t require extensive procedures.
How Does Composite Bonding Work?
Composite bonding is a quick, non-invasive treatment where our skilled dentists apply a durable, tooth-colored resin to the affected teeth. The material is carefully sculpted to match the shape and color of your natural teeth, then hardened and polished for a seamless finish. The result? A beautifully restored smile that looks and feels completely natural.
- Minimally Invasive: No need to remove healthy tooth structure.
- Quick and Comfortable: Often completed in just one visit with little to no discomfort.
- Natural-Looking: Custom-matched to blend perfectly with your smile.
- Affordable: A budget-friendly alternative to veneers or crowns.
