How would veneers affect my natural teeth?

Tuesday, November 20th, 2012
Q.

Hello,

I’m currently looking into veneers. How would this effect my natural teeth? Are they just glued on top of your natural teeth or do your teeth get filed down? Also, are they permanant and can you remove them? I would appreciate any help you can give me on this subject. Also, how much generally are they??

Thanks

Can I have my old veneers replaced with new ones?

Thursday, November 15th, 2012
Q.

I have 12 veneers which where fitted many years ago and some have chipped. I would like to know if they can be replaced and would it cost more as old veneers need to be removed? Also, I have been asked to look at brazil crowns (not sure if right name )instead as they would last longer !
But as my veneers have lasted this long I would be happy to get them again as I’m now 47 years of age so if I get another 15 years from them theres nothing to say my teeth will still be as they are.

I work full time as a nurse but cannot afford veneers, what would you advise me to do?

Wednesday, October 17th, 2012
Q.

Hello there, I have been struggling with my teeth now for a number of years. I am depressed with my appearance, can’t physically eat with my two front teeth, and I am extremely conscious. I used to feel quite attractive, not any more. I work full time as a nurse, but simply cannot afford the veneers i’v always dreamed of. I’m hoping to get them some day, and I will never give up. It’s making me very unhappy. I love to smile, sing, and talk. All of these things are becoming a daily struggle. Would just appreciate some or any advice as to what I can do. I am at my wits end. Thank you for reading,

Is it possible to have just 6 teeth prepared for veneers? Or is it standard practice to have more?

Wednesday, October 17th, 2012
Q.

Hi i am thinking of possibly getting veneers. It seems that porcelain are better, or Lumineers from what I have read. I was thinking of perhaps getting my top six teeth done and then whitening the rest of my teeth. My teeth are not in terrible shape but stained partly from smoking a little and i have been grinding a little also. Is this possible to do or is it more usual to do more including the bottom row. Any advice would be most welcome.
Kindest regards.

My teeth are small, what’s the best cosmetic dental treatment available to make them appear larger?

Tuesday, October 16th, 2012
Q.

Dear Dr Mark Hughes

I really would like to have a bigger smile, my teeth are kind of small.
Maybe I’ll make a facial cosmetic surgery when I’ll have my 20 years;

BUT…..

-What should I first do:
Facial cosmetic surgery first or make my teeth first ?

-What is the best :
Veneers or da Vinci Veneers or MAC Veneers or Lumineers ? And can one of these make my smile or teeth bigger ?

Actually I just want to make my smile like Michael Jackson’s big smile; but compared to teeth can I make my teeth as big as Michael Jackson’s big teeth just at the top ?

Can veneers correct broken, front teeth?

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2012
Q.

Hi, Doctor Moore. Here is my problem, so I have fallen recently which resulted in me smashing my two top front teeth and also a bottom one. I have half of my top two left and about a quarter of my bottom tooth left. I am very worried that these teeth will have to be removed, as they’re obviously permanent teeth this thought really scares me! Can these teeth be saved or is it just easier for these to be replaced with new, prosthetic teeth? I was wondering what my options are??? Any help would really be appreciated. I would like to have veneers, this has been a long time wish of mine, would they be a suitable form of treatment? So I see this as an ideal time to have some good dental work done. Thanks for your time.

What is the best treatment available for centre line correction?

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2012
Q.

My top teeth are not centred so I have my right front in the centre of my smile. I am not a candidate for braces as the problem is too severe. Please could you tell me the best (considering cost) correction method. I am considering veneers and understand they will shave a lot of my teeth away. Would this be a problem?
If I go ahead with this procedures, is it something I could do in stages? This would break the cost down. I could have my teeth whitened to the same shade of the veneers so the alterations are not overly obvious?
I clearly need lots of guidance. I have seen a few dentist and have been quoted £12,000 as a basic cost. This is not an option for me. I really need help.

Can I get treatment for my misaligned teeth on the NHS?

Wednesday, September 26th, 2012
Q.

Hi Mark,
I have two chipped front teeth from a accident when I was 9years old. Over the years my teeth have grown and misshaped and now very wonky and overlapping each other now at 23 years old. Is there anyway I can get veneers or treatment on the top four teeth on the nhs? It’s stopped me smiling and I’m so self conscious of it, I hate them. If I had the money I would of had them done years ago. It’s just so expensive but I can not leave them like this any longer.

Please help me with some advice!

Thank you.

How to I sort out my badly done porcelain veneers?

Wednesday, September 26th, 2012
Q.

I foolishly rushed into getting 6 porcelain veneers a few years a go. It was at the height of this dental holiday nonsense. I had been in an accident, I was young, and I was desperate to get my smile repaired. I stupidly jumped in to it without looking at what could go wrong.

Anyway, they took away most of my teeth to fit them. I was shocked to when i realised they had done this. They subsequently moved (the veneers)- and i’ve never been happy with them. In-fact far from improving my confidence they have left me very insecure.

I\m really upset, a brace would have been the way to go, but now this is not an option as i don’t have my original teeth.

My question then is, is there anyway that i can have my smile repaired so it looks natural? i actually want it to look just normal, maybe even not perfectly straight. Just a normal smile so i’m not thinking, oh my god i must look like one of those fake simon cowell people everytime i open my mouth.

PLease help. i just need to know there is a solution, it’s really upset me.

And also, how do i know who to go with??
