My crowns and veneers have discoloured what can i do?

Thursday, January 31st, 2008
Q.
Hello dr kaliesh, In March of this year I had extensive cosmetic work to my teeth (17 teeth in all) including veneers. crowns and 1 bridge. I asked my dentist for a white Hollywood smile. Already the veneers are discolouring (particularly the lower ones) and there is becoming a difference in colour between the veneers and crowns. They were all the same colour when fitted. My dentist said this is due to the different materials used in the crowns and veneers. This was not explained to me at the time. My dentist says that people don”t look that closley anyway but surely that is not the point. This work cost me a substantial amount of money – what can I do. My Dentist is a great dentist but I am worried that maybe he was out of his depth with my substantial dental cosmetic makeover.

I was told i needed braces as a child, I have crooked teeth I want a straight row of pearly whites, what are my options and how much will it cost ?

Thursday, January 31st, 2008
Q.
As a child I was told I would need braces, but for this I needed to have several teeth removed as I have too many teeth. This frightened me when I was young and I refused. Over the years I have always been concious about my smile and I try not to smile as much as possible so that I can hide my teeth. Now that I am 21 I feel that this behaviour is foolish and yet I still wont smile! My teeth overlap and my canines are so prominant that I look like a vampire. I want to have a perfectly straight row of pearly whites, but I’m unsure of what treatments I would need. I dont want to have adult braces that have to be in for years. I would like to get the whole thing over and done with asap so I can actually smile with pride to all my friends and family. What can I do to acheive this and how much will it cost me? I would like to do this as close to home as possible.
