Worn Edge Restoration: see it on your own smile first
Rebuild teeth worn flat and short by grinding.
Teeth wear down — from grinding, from acid, from decades of use — and as the edges flatten and shorten, smiles start to read older than they are. The change is so gradual that most people only notice it in old photos.
Restoring worn edges with bonding, veneers or crowns rebuilds the length and the youthful shape. If grinding caused the wear, a dentist will usually want to address that too, or the restorations wear down the same way the enamel did.
What your Smyly™ preview shows
Smyly™ shows your smile with the worn edges restored — a natural-length repair and a fuller rebuild — so you can see how much length actually suits your face.
You'll see 2 versions side by side: Restored, Fully Rebuilt .

The honest limits of this preview
Restores appearance only. Does not address the cause of the wear. A preview can't see bone, bite, gum health or anything beneath the surface — only a clinical exam can. Treat it as a conversation starter for your dentist, never as a promised result.
Worth asking your dentist
- What's driving my wear — grinding, acid, bite — and how do we stop it continuing?
- How much length can you rebuild, and with which material?
- Do I need a night guard to protect the result?
