Do you have any opinions on the various teeth whitening systems?

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009
Q.
Hi there, My teeth have been yellow for as long as I can remember. (I first became aware when I was 11 or 12, I am now 44.) On and off over the years I have tried various home kits/toothpastes with no success, I have also been to a dentist and had the Britesmile treatment done approximately 3 years ago which also proved very disappointing. I have seriously considered having veneers (Lumineers) but one dentist suggested that I should try the Enlighten whitening system first as my teeth are fairly straight, its only the colour that lets them down. From this do you have any suggestions or opinions on the various whitening systems that may help me?

My teeth are placed random can I ve veneers and fillings?

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009
Q.
Hello Dr Solanki, I have had a very hard emotional time over my bent teeth, I am finally approaching this issue to finally be able to smile normally! I have very bent teeth, I have all my teeth but they are slightly discoloured due to lack of brushing and I used to smoke for 7 years. I am very interested in having Veneers to make over my smile. As the most bent teeth are my two upper front, (they bend backwards about 90 degree’s out) are they too bent to have veneers? I looking for 8 veneers and fillings if needed. I am aware of the costs but am worried it will take a lot more than veneers to fix my nightmare teeth. I think it steams from my dentist at age 12 saying my teeth are placed like rubbish in a bin, random and not pleasent to look at. (yeah I know :-() Can you help me? Thank you

What is the ideal overbite Plz advice

Monday, October 19th, 2009
Q.
Dr. Patel, I have had braces now for about 2 years and my orthodontist plans to take them off in a few weeks. I feel I my upper teeth still overlap my bottom teeth too much. I discussed it with her but she just said it was within normal range. A lot of pictures I have been seeing of people that’s had braces have a more flat facial profile. What is the ideal overbite? Should my mustache area protrude out farther than my lower lip area?
