What are the best veneers lumineers, cerec, J.Kim ?

Q. Having just had a quote from my dentist in Liverpool I felt more like I was being sold double glazing the way in which the price changed. I already have a now dated bridge in place of 3 teeth + 3 crowns + am looking to have veneers over my ten top teeth. I think I also need gum reshaping + obviously whitening of bottom teeth. My dentist recommended J. Kim veneers and said they were by far the best, but going on various websites everyone says differently some saying lumineers, cerec etc. Some even say they will do the whole process in one day, is this advisable and what veneers do you recommend? I would prefer to travel a bit to find someone who I could trust, do you do free consultations in Birmingham or if not is there someone who you could recommend. I do hope you can help, A

A. Dear A,

I am sorry to hear about your problems finding a solution to your problems. As you are considering having a considerable amount of cosmetic work done, you are a very attractive patient to any dental practice. Most dental practices, ourselves included, would be happy to offer you a free consultation.

Regarding the best veneer system to use, I believe that a lot depends on what the dentist & producing laboratory are used to using. The next consideration is what the veneers are trying to do, correcting crooked teeth, masking discolouration or general tidy up . the subtle differences between systems will affect what is best for you I use two systems routinely . The final restorations of one day veneers are unlikely to be aesthetically superior than rivals, however there is a market for such products if time is limited.

Should you wish to visit the Bennett’s Hill Practice we would be happy to discuss what your dental work might involve without high pressure sales or double glazing. We are two minutes walk from New Street Station if you are traveling in by main line rail, alternatively any of the city centre car parks are fine if you travel by car.

Please feel free to phone on 0121 643 0610 if you would like to talk over your case further.

Regards Rob.

    Dear Rob

    I’m interested in getting veneers as I feel extremley conscious of my teeth, which are (in the words of some of bad mannered people) are like a row of bombed houses! I’m aware of proceduces, but i’m also aware of the cost, which I’m prepaired to pay, but my only hope would be to set up a payment plan, credit is against me at this present time.
    It’s not about vanity, but more about confidence and being able to smile without being feeling ashamed of my smile.
    I hope you can give me advice Thanks Noel
