I am considering buying a home whitening kit via the internet

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008
Q.
Hello Dr Tennet I am considering buying a home kit via the internet to whiten my teeth. I have one veneer – upper front, and I wanted your advice on whether or not the whitening process will in any way interfere/damage or even make it a different colour to my own teeth? Also, is there a particular type/brand of kit you would recommend? I know that some brands are offering a laser plasma light to accelerate the process – What should I be wary of? Finally would you advice me to do this at home? I can’t really afford dental prices…. I have sensitive teeth and gums and already use a toothpaste for this problem. Many thanks for your time

Is it possible to have porcelain veneers removed

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008
Q.
Is it possible to have porcelain veneers removed and then to have your teeth whitened? My teeth are discoloured due to tetracycline and the veneers were put on approximately 20 years ago. I have six veneers on my upper teeth. Thanks

when I was a child I was hit with a cricket bat my front tooth has discoloured

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008
Q.
I had an accident when I was a child I was hit with a cricket bat into my mouth, this resulted in my front tooth over the years discolouring, my dentist years ago said that the nerve would eventually die. I am now very self conscious of this discolouration. What kind of treatment could I expect to make me smile again.

I no longer smile due to a dead tooth which is discoloured

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008
Q.
I have a dead tooth, left front, if your looking straight at me, and it is now very discoloured, I am looking for advise to rectify the problem, as I no longer smile, as it is so discoloured. My dentist has advised it is very lucky to be there, it was knocked out about 15 years ago, and is held in with wire, but is really only just hanging in there. Please can you let me know what may be a suitable option?
