Would MAC veneers be an option for my stained teeth?

Wednesday, September 26th, 2012
Q.

Hello Mark,

I would be very grateful for your advice.

I currently have ceramic pressed veneers on my two upper front teeth. I injured myself when I was young which deadened one of the front teeth and I had root canal treatment on it. It is grey in colour. I had veneers fitted to my two front teeth to get an even finish, and when the second tooth was prepped for the veneer it was found to be stained quite badly yellow. I’ve had these veneers for about two years and I think they look much better than no veneers at all, but wondered if there might be a better option for me.

I have previously been advised that crowns would be the next step, but I would prefer veneers if possible.

Do you think that MAC veneers would be an option, and if so could they be placed on just my two front teeth to conceal the grey/yellow discolouration and would they be able to blend in with my remaining teeth?

Your help is much appreciated.

How much would veneers and whitening be?

Wednesday, September 26th, 2012
Q.

Hi

I have been considering dental veneers and teeth whitening as I’m not happy with my teeth. I have fangs next to my big teeth which are not too bad but I would have them out of choice. On my right ride next to the dang I also have a tooth which has grown higher in the gum than it gum than it should have (when I was younger the tooth grew whilst my baby tooth was still there and then the baby tooth fell out) and as a result of this when I smile it looks as though I am missing a tooth. My dentist told me this could only be corrected by a brace however I’m not keen on this as I worry it may move my other teeth which are straight and fine as they are. Is this something that could potentially be corrected with a veneer? If so what would the approximate cost of 3 veneers and teeth whitening be? The staining on my teeth isn’t bad but is probably too much for my age. Thank you.

My new veneers look too large and bulky, what should I do?

Friday, September 14th, 2012
Q.

I had 2 porcelain veneers fitted 18 yrs ago and i have just recently had them removed to get them replaced as i was unhappy with colour/appearance of them.
My 2 front teeth are in surprisingly good condition and i am actually happy with them as they are but my dentist tells me i need the new veneers fitted as my teeth are prepared for them and too thin to be without veneers.
I have seen the new veneers and i think they look too big,bulky and wide when they were placed on my teeth so am going back to the technician in the hope he can make them thinner and less bulky.
What is the thinnest a veneer can be (bearing in mind only a small amount of tooth surface was shaved off my teeth) and can veneers be pretty much the same size as my own teeth?
I look forward to your expert opinion.

I want veneers but I have a gum infection, what would you advise?

Monday, September 10th, 2012
Q.

hi there, I am considering receiving vaneers but i have receding gums due to a gum infection i had. i am unsure if vaneers are even right for me and if this could be sorted out by a less painfull process, what do you think? my gums have receded to quite far down on my bottom jaw. everywhere else is healthy i think. but the bit at the front (at the bottom) is not the same at all. two of my front bottom teeth are very slightly loose feeling. i do not know if it is just my imagination. all i want to do is to regain my usual smile. please help me. thanks.

How much should I expect to pay for veneers and will they blend with my existing teeth?

Monday, September 10th, 2012
Q.

Hello, I am interested in getting four veneers and wondered how I would get an exact price for them please? The least expensive veneers range quite a lot and I wonder why the vary so much? The four veneers are the two teeth either side of the two main from teeth. They are fang like and the two next to them are twisted. Will the veneers blend in with my other teetg as I don’t want to have all my teeth changed to veneers.

I would be looking to do it as soon as possible are the waiting lists long? Can it be done in a day as there would be travelling involved.

Thank you,
Regards.

Can I have veneers or crowns for all of my front teeth?

Monday, September 10th, 2012
Q.

Hi, I have one tooth at the top, front of my mouth which is fairly pushed back into my mouth. As well as this I have fillings in a few of my front teeth due to decay, however they as well as other teeth are now very stained. I do have a slight overbite which doesn’t bother me at all and all my other teeth are fine. I was just wondering would I be able to get veneers or crowns for all of my front teeth? Even though I have this one bent tooth. I’m really unhappy with my teeth and sad its come to this but so desperate to get a nice set of front teeth!!How much should I expect to pay for this type of treatment? Thank you for any advice in advance!

I can’t clean the gums in between my veneers, will this lead to problems?

Monday, September 10th, 2012
Q.

Hi there,

I had veneers done in spain around 6 years ago and they were done on one plate so all four front veneers are as one and I can’t clean the gums in between – do you think this will lead to problems, it already seems to be as the gums are bleeding and slightly receeding but my question is – should I get all four replaced and if so, what would that likely cost? I am worried I will just face many problems and they are the four front ones so its important they look good too 🙁 can you give me some impartial advice. Does it work to have them all on one plate – if there are already problems will I need to replace them??

thank you in advance!

Which veneers are best suited for thinning teeth problems?

Monday, September 3rd, 2012
Q.

Hello,

I am considering getting veneers. My teeth are thinning very rapidly despite of the fact that I really do take a good care of them and watch that I don’t eat too much acidic foods.
I maintain a very good oral hygiene routine too. Although my bottom teeth look good the top 4-6 not so good. So I’m not sure how many veneers minimum I should have and more importantly which ones are the best for me? I read a lot of information about the various types available, which makes me more and more confused.

There are so many types to choose from and I don’t know which would be best for me. I would appreciate your advice.
Thank you.

Can I have veneers for very prominent front teeth?

Monday, September 3rd, 2012
Q.

I’m from the UK and 24 and I actually need braces but I’ve given up on ever getting them. The one thing that really effects my confidence is I have a dead discolored tooth. The options I believe to have is a veneer or tooth whitening. (My dentist is not very good and I’m in the process of switching) I know neither are cheap. Can I actually get a veneer if I have really prominent front teeth? And what is the cheapest deal I can get. Thanks in advance

Would a dental veneer cover my yellow tooth?

Monday, September 3rd, 2012
Q.

Hi I had a consultation last year over my two front teeth and the one to the left of them, I had knocked my two front teeth years before and chipped both and had them filled with white fillings, which are still on them today, one tooth died and I had root canal but since then it has gone yellow, and my two front teeth over time have pushed back, also the tooth next to them went forwards and twisted over time. My question is would a veneer cover the yellow and could I have a veneer over the white fillings? As I really don’t want to have drastic filling and drilling down of my two front teeth! My second question is what are the risks of the Inman brace? As it moves your teeth quickly can you get fractures or damage to the roots of my teeth?
