My front teeth don’t look good due to calcium deficiency what can I do

Q. I have a calcium deficiency on my front two teeth, my dentist doesnt want to do anything about it as he said there isn’t anything wrong with my teeth its just for vanity reasons. What would be the best thing to to about my teeth i dont really like the idea of crowns, is there anything else i could look into?

A. If you are happy with the shape and alignment of your teeth and you are only concerned about those marks, you can consider the options listed below:
– microabrasion of the tooth surface
– white composite fillings
– porcelain veneers.
Please bear in mind I have not seen your teeth so cannot guarantee these treatments are appropriate in your case.

I have calcium deficiency on one of my top front teeth,
would having my teeth whitened help this or make it worse?

Hi, I have what is a second tooth but not an adult tooth on the left of myfront two teeth. This tooth is short and has caused a crookedness in the two teeth eother side of it. I would like to get veneers to address this – probably 3 teeth required and wanted to enquire on cost.
