I have bridges and veneers and I want my teeth whitened

Q. Hi, I have 2 false teeth, one at each side of my 2 front teeth, its a bridge, fitted to the back of my 2 front teeth. However the bridge was making my 2 front teeth appear darker, so my dentist put 2 veneers on my 2 front teeth aswell, to make them appear brighter. But what i wanted to ask was, i’d like to have a whole brighter whiter smile. And i know you wouldn’t be able to make my veneers whiter, unless i got new ones. Do you think i should get implants instead of these two veneers on both sides of my 2 front teeth, because then i won’t need the veneers on my front teeth, which will be good, as food keeps getting stuck inbetween the veneers. And i keep thinking my 2 front teeth will rot or somethin, because i’m not brushing them. But dentist says they’re fine. Do you have any clinics in Greenock, or near Greenock?

A. I would really need to see you to assess you and give you your options.  implants are generally the best option but, since you have already had bridges and veneers even if they were removed your front teeth have probably been cut down so would need fillings or some sort of restoration.

It is always better to have single veneers when possible.
