Many of us with clearly too much time on our hands and nothing better to do have been speculating as to how a certain TV reality star went from having two long prominent front teeth to now having teeth that are the same length across the front. This person also got braces at the same time, although they haven't been on long enough to accomplish this and I don't know that they would anyway. Some are attributing this to them, however, whereas I believe she must've had them "filed down" and then capped. Who is correct?

I believe a good dentist can fix that issue by adjusting the length of the front teeth with a grinder bit in the dental drill. If there's not enough tooth over the core then taking them down and capping them would do the trick.

Whitney Way Thore of "My Big Fat Fabulous Life." So I'm correct that the braces, which were simultaneous with the appearance of the shorter front teeth, are not responsible for this change, correct?

Modern dentistry can do miracles nowadays.
