Peg Lateral Treatment in Maspeth, Queens

Conservative cosmetic solutions for undersized lateral teeth

Explore

A peg lateral is a lateral incisor — the tooth between your central front tooth and canine — that developed smaller, narrower, or more pointed than typical. It is one of the common reasons patients seek conservative cosmetic dentistry, especially after orthodontic treatment when the teeth are aligned but the lateral incisors still look undersized. At SOL Dental Arts in Maspeth, Queens, peg lateral treatment is handled by Columbia University-trained dentists Dr. Arthur Volker, DDS and Dr. Aadel Soleymani, DDS, with an emphasis on minimally invasive planning and natural-looking proportions.

Why Peg Laterals Affect Smile Balance

Peg laterals are lateral incisors that developed smaller, narrower, or more pointed than typical. Even when the teeth are aligned, undersized lateral incisors can make the smile look incomplete, asymmetric, or spaced.


Treatment Options for Peg Laterals

Composite bonding. Tooth-colored resin is sculpted directly onto the existing lateral incisor to build width, contour, and symmetry with little or no enamel removal.

Porcelain veneers or ceramic restorations. Custom ceramic treatment can reshape peg laterals with durable color stability and polish when the long-term esthetic or functional goals support that choice.

What Cosmetic Dentistry Can Improve?

Cosmetic dentistry may be used to address a wide range of aesthetic concerns, including chipped teeth, worn edges, uneven tooth shape, discoloration, spacing, small lateral incisors, asymmetry, and smiles that no longer feel as polished or youthful as they once did. In many cases, improvement is achieved through conservative treatment planning that enhances the smile while respecting natural anatomy.

Our Approach to Smile Enhancement

At SOL Dental Arts, cosmetic treatment is planned with attention to proportion, translucency, contour, smile line, and facial harmony. We evaluate not only how the teeth look individually, but how they work together within the smile as a whole. This allows us to recommend treatment that feels elegant, refined, and appropriate for the individual patient rather than generic or overdone.

Treatment Options That May Be Included

Depending on the case, cosmetic dentistry may involve composite bonding, veneers, whitening, selective contouring, replacement of failing bonding, or a more comprehensive smile refinement plan. Some patients benefit from a small enhancement to one or two teeth, while others may be candidates for a broader treatment approach designed to improve the overall balance of the smile.
