Is its advisable to replace veneers?

Friday, October 23rd, 2009
Q.
Hello. I had veneers placed in my upper canines. However they are bulky and much bigger thay my original teeth. I would like to replace them. However I am worried that any further work done would damage my underlying teeth. How easy or advisable is it to remove veneers (they are well cemented)? Would you recommend replacing the veneers with no risk at all? Thank you.

Is there any possibility to extract as many teeth to hv avg smile?

Friday, October 23rd, 2009
Q.
As an early teen I had chipped the top, front 6 of my teeth rollerblading. They felt loose for a while and had always bothered me the way they healed. It bothers me how my front teeth are displayed slightly misaligned to my left and with an overbite as well. The Army Dentist insisted on putting veneers over them. That never did anything to fix the misalignment problem of the front two top teeth being aligned under my nose. It seems the injury I must have suffered as a kid made the teeth grow in this way after they healed. I am disappointed and finished with the idea of trying to salvage my smile at this point in my life. I am wondering if you may be able to let me know if there is a possibility that there is a Dentist out there that would extract my front, top 6 teeth or as many as needed to have an average looking smile that is aligned under my nose. Thanks very much

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009
Q.
Hello Dr., My upper front 2 teeth are little outwards. All others are in good place. These front teeth are more expanded on sides towards the ends than the hold between gums. Now I want to get them adjusted. What are the possibilities? Do I have to wear braces or there is something like grinding the sides to get them adjusted? Thanks for your answers

Is its normal for a veneer to be slightly wide than other teeth?

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009
Q.
I had a veneer on one of my top front teeth as it was dead and discoloured. I wasn’t showed te colour or size of the veneer before it was fitted. as it turned out the colour isnt perfect but much better than it was, the problem i have is the size. i went back the day after it was fitted unhappy as the tooth was much wider than my other front tooth and was very noticable. My dentist shaved it down the one side saying that is as much as he could do without damaging the veneer. It was better but the tooth still stands out as sticking out and slightly too wide.Is this normal for a veneer? i was under the impression the tooth is shaved down so that veneer fits into place without sticking out? many thanks

Can I hv veneers fitted to lower set of teeth?

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009
Q.
Dear Dr. Caplan, My First question is :- I am thinking of haveing veneers but wonder whether the natural tooth will become damaged in a similar way that natural finger nails become damaged by having false nail fitted onto them ? My Second question is :- I notice that the vast majority of patience have veneers fitted to the upper set of teeth, can they be also fitted with equal result to the Lower set ?

Can there be a retainer attached with a mouth guard?

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009
Q.
Go slight Dr. kailesh Solanki, I am going to have Porcelain Veneer’s, not Composite put on. I have several question: I am going to have 2 front veneers applied. At this time I have temporary Veneers. I would like to know why are my temporary 2 front teeth getting black by the gum line traveling inside of the veneers? It really looks like mildew (Grosse)! No there was no dry blood. I am very faithfully at rinsing with salt water daily. This is the 3rd time this has happened to me. (3rd time is a charm) from what I hear? Ha Ha!! The first time it happened my dentist repaired them. I ask her to redo them. She said the veneers look to good to redo? The 3rd time I demanded her to redo them. All this happened with 2 weeks. (2). Doctor are my permit veneers going to have the same shape and length of my temporary ones? I do not really like the shape of the teeth now but can live with them for couple of weeks. I really expect my veneers to be even from the gum line along with a perfect pair of shape teeth? (3rd). At this time I wear retainers. I can only wear my bottom ones not my top? Will my top teeth move? I grind my teeth at night. Is there such a thing as retainers attached with a mouth guard so I can not bite down on my teeth /Veneers? If there is can you please give me the name of the retainers /mouth guard along with the Web site to see some examples (Pictures) please? If all possible please respond at your earliest.. Thank You For Your Help.
