My front teeth have crowns can I have veneers?
Q. My two front teeth are capped as is a back one which keeps coming lose. I would like veneers and when I smile have ten teeth top and bottom showing I can’t have whitening done as my teeth are very sensative what procedure would be necessary for me I also have a number of silver fillings
A. Thanks for your questions, firstly I should tell you that as your teeth have already been crowned, it will not be possible to veneer them. However it is possible to acheive a new smile by a mix of crowns and veneers. If you are considering a full mouth makeover, then you would be able to choose the shade that your teeth will be made in at the start of the treatment, avoiding the need for whitening. If you are just having uppers or lowers done, then the restorations would usually be made to match the natural teeth shades. If you decide to give the whitening a try, this would usually be done prior to the preperation of your restorations, as you can then choose the shade to match your whitened teeth. I hope this helps, but please don’t hesitate to contact me again should you require any further assistance.

Hello,
I have two front veneers that, after 12 years, need replacing as they keep dropping off. One dentist has recommended me crowning them instead as they are longer lasting and less expensive. I am concerned as my teeth are in tip top condition (I have no fillings and only had these veneered after I chipped one). Is it true you have to file away more for a crown?
Please adivse. I am very confused.
Thanks so much.
Hi, I have slightly buck front two teeth and also have hyper flurosis. I was wondering if I have venners fitted if this will make my front teeth look more buck or if they can be trimmed back to make them look straight? I realise it depends on how buck they are but I was told by my dentist they would probably look OK with veneers although I am still concerned about being left with bulbous looking buck teeth. The plan I have been quoted on is to fit 8 top veneers. Thanks
The veneers shouldn’t make them look worse if made properly, I guess you’ll need the teeth trimming back and very thin veneers placed such as Lumineers that way they should turn out great
