Saturday, December 4th, 2010Why are my veneers becoming so discolored when they have only recently been fitted?
Friday, December 3rd, 2010Q.
Hi,
I have 8 porcelain veneers which i have had for around 7 months now. They cost ALOT of money as I’m sure u know, however over the past 3 months i have noticed them to start and discolor slightly…. they are nearly the same colour as my teeth previously (which weren’t to bad just not bright white) obviously i am upset about this as i haven’t had them on even a year yet!! just half a year! i went to my local dentist last week (this wasn’t where i got my veneers done) and asked him why he thought they were discoloring so soon and he said there may have been a slight problem when bonding, therefore liquids are getting behind my veneers and leaking through :s? does this sound possible? he said i may need them replacing as they will get worse!! do you think my cosmetic dentist will re-charge me so soon after having them done when it is no fault of my own??
Thank you for taking time to read this.

How can I straighten my misaligned teeth and improve their whiteness?
Friday, December 3rd, 2010Q.
Hello!
I have a problem with my teeth, they are not aligned properly, not straight, especially one front tooth.(it sticks out)…I had braces in the past but it didn’t turn out to be a successful treatment because apparently my tongue went in the way and pushed the teeth a bit forward….I still have this wire behind my front teeth to keep everything together…could you advice what kind of braces to have? I was also thinking about veneers, but my teeth are healthy though they are naturally yellowish ( i had them whitened as well, but still stayed pretty much the same….)
What would you advise me?
Looking forward to hear from you soon!
