Hi Mark, I am 17 years old and I am really unhappy with the way my teeth look and therefore I am currently trying to decide what will be the best procedure for me to get in order to correct my smile. I am thinking of getting porcelain veneers but I am very worried about where to get them done and how to go about the whole procedure. Could you recommend any places and let me know whether you think this procedure will be best for me? Thank you.
Hello.
On my next to front tooth I had a porcelain veneer which only lasted five years. It fell off and I swallowed it! My dentist fitted a composite veneer on an emergency visit which lasted for only 2 years. That fell off and went down the sink. I then had another composite the next day as an emergency which is on now and is horrible. I follow a really good hygiene programme and have visited the dentist every 6 months since the age of 3. I am now 52. Why do they keep falling off? Whatever type I have? I am reluctant to have a high cost porcelain veneer fitted as the fear of losing it is probable. Thank you in anticipation.
Hi Mark,
I would like some advice regarding what would be the most effective and least harmful option for my teeth. I have done a lot of research, however it is very difficult to find the best option.
My top front teeth have two “fangs” either side which are slightly shorter than the four front teeth and stick out more than the others. What would you suggest is the best option to sort this? I am worried that my teeth will all be different lengths if I have these two “fangs” sorted out and do not do something with the others?
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Are porcelain veneers permanent? If no, then how long can one wear it.
is it comfortable to wear them? If no then what are the challenges.
do they have to be removed and washed at intervals? If yes then what are the disadvantages? I have a discoloured teeth as a result of childhood persistent illness. I got this condition due the many drugs i had to be given. Also I got fillings that are permanent.will this have any effect on the veneers?
Hello Sir,
To start with, i have flourine rich teeth which has made my teeth fragile and little bit spotty in appearance. In addition, my front two teeths are bigger in size than the rest (Bunny smile) and the gap between the front two teeth is significantly noticeable. In order to have a proper smile, I was wondering whether it would be advisable to go for crowning, or is there any other way to deal with this? Any suggestions would welcome.
Regards
Hi, I have a large gap in my tooth from where a part of it has been knocked out, I also have quite a large over bite, and very discoloured teeth. I have always been affected ted by my teeth ever since I was young. It really knocks my confidence during everyday life and makes things difficult. Especially social occasions, for example; I won’t smile at people or for photos and I cover my mouth when I speak. I was wondering if porcelain veneers would sort these problems out and if so would I be able to claim them off the NHS as I’m a single mother of a 2 month year old baby and would not be able to afford them without the NHS’s help
Hello could you help me. I have a small gaps between my four front teeth and I want to close them! The gaps are bad to my appearance and I really hate my smile because of them. I will try anything to make my smile better! I want my smile to be something people like, not dislike.
I don’t want to wear braces and can’t afford Invisalign Teen. Is there a retainer that could help me with my situation? Is there anything that I can do or buy that will close this gap? This gap MUST go, please help! There is nothing more bothering than this gap to me! Please give me advice on what to do!
