Want veneers replaced and need implants. How can I be sure of the right dentist?

Monday, May 16th, 2011
Q.

I would like to have the 2 veneers replaced on my front teeth. Both natural teeth have silver fillings which now give a grey impression. My veneers are about 15 years old though.

Also I have a missing tooth (top right) and beside that I have a temporary crown (and bridge). The problem is my gum has receded and I would like a skin graft to resolve this. So I also need an implant & crown .

This treatment will be a huge investment for me as the cost will be high. How can I be certain of finding the right dentist & being happy with the results?

Many thanks in advance for your help.
