I appreciate any infomation that you have regarding this question as the LVI dentist told me that one reason my mouth looks different is that the first dentist did not address my "cant" (teeth running uphill on the left side). My original crowns that were in place for twenty five years did not reveal my "cant". In otherwords, the first dentist must have compensatied for the cant by making the teeth on the left side slightly The dentist who performed the current work did not address the"cant".
