Is there any way to temporarily cover up my shaven tooth that has been prepped for a veneer?

Thursday, December 9th, 2010
Q.

Hi Andrew, i am having a veneer, and the first ‘moulding’ appointment is in two weeks, this is where I’ve been told that they will shave my tooth and take a mould to be sent off.
i then have my ‘fitting’ appointment two weeks after that, so my question is, will i have to put up with a shaven tooth for two weeks?
I broke my tooth years ago, and occasionally it snaps now (which is why I’m having the veneer) and each time it snaps, to me it looks horrible
i don’t particularly want to have to put up with this for two weeks.

Many thanks

and can you have your teeth whitened if you have veneers on? Thanks

What dental treatments could close the large gap in my front two teeth and help me achieve the perfect smile?

Wednesday, December 8th, 2010
Q.

I am so depressed as I have awful teeth and have been told by my dentist that I can never have the perfect smile I want. I have a large gap in my teeth (I can fit 3 1p coins easily between my two front teeth), and have been told that even if I have veneers I will still have a small gap. But I always seem to watch these American makeover shows where people have much worst teeth than me, and they always seem to work there magic and achieve wonderful results. Can anyone give some advice please.

If any of my dental veneers fell off how would my natural tooth look underneath?

Saturday, December 4th, 2010
Q.

I have recently had Cosmetic Dentistry undertaken (6 weeks ago), which included a root canal, full porcelain crown and 7 porcelain veneers on my 8 upper front teeth. I am ecstatic with the result but I was wondering – If a veneer fell off, what could I expect to see in relation to how my natural tooth would look? Would it be filed down, grey, black? I didn’t like to ask my wonderful dentist as I felt I’d asked enough stupid questions. During a short break when I was having the treatment I went to the bathroom but never opened my mouth to look in the mirror as I was a little scared as to what I might see. Any information you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
