My teeth are thinning and one has broken, what do you advise?

Q.
I have a condition called osteopenia and have noticed recently that my teeth are thining. As a result one of my front teeth has broken and I have been advised I require a veneer. I am aware there are a number of types of veneers on the market and am unsure which would be best for me. I am concerned by traditional veneer method of shaving tooth in preparation as my front teeth are so thin. Can you advise. I am based in Glasgow.

Hi

There are lots of different tyes of veneers, some more invasive to the tooth than others. Lumineers maybe suitable or some aesthetic composite bonding. Try Jamie Newlands at the Berkeley Clinic in Glasgow, they are excellent
