I’m Considering Veneers – Will They Look Natural?
Q.
Is it possible to have veneered two front teeth only? Also, I imagine it would be a challenge to match them to blend in with the rest my teeth? The front right tooth is half-filled and at the top where tooth meets the gum the enamel is quite damaged, it’s almost scraped and it’s become like a brown dent, gradually extending. Obviously I would think twice if they didn’t quite match up. There’s nothing wrong with my front left tooth though. Any advice would help me greatly? Thank you.

Yes it is – it’s very challenging to make the veneers look identical to the natural teeth but in the right hands and with a very skilled dentist and dental ceramic technician (if the veneers are to be porcelain), it is possible to produce a great result. You might be able to have some composite bonding or composite veneers done as an alternative to porcelain. My advice is to go for a consultation with an experienced cosmetic dentist and ask to see examples of similar cases they have treated.
