This patient worked in technology and was contemplating a transition to management in his field, but he felt that his smile might prevent him from interviewing well for a position that he was otherwise well-qualified for.

He had requested replacement of an existing gold-frame crown with a more natural looking restoration. The contour of the gold crown had been more rounded and bulky than his natural adjacent tooth.

The size of the teeth and spacing of the arch required preservation of the diastema  (space) between the central incisors.  The uniform color of his teeth, and custom contour of the all-porcelain crown, gave symmetry and balance to his smile.  He did end up getting that management position, then moved on to earn his MBA!
