Could I get Inman Aligners after having veneer treatment.Plz suggest

Sunday, October 11th, 2009
Q.
Dear Dr Glaister, My top row of teeth are neat but the two front teeth stick out and they are longer than I would like. I was wondering: – is it possible to get teeth trimmed and to what extent (e.g. is it only the enamel part that can be trimmed?). Would it be necessary to have veneers fitted on the trimmed teeth – Could I get Inman Aligners even after having veneer treatment already? Many thanks and best regards

What are the best possible treatments for yellow teeth?

Saturday, October 10th, 2009
Q.
I have quite yellow teeth,always have since a child. I have recently had bone grafts in both upper and lower jaw due to peridontal disease.Which i am told has been stopped.Now i need 4 crowns.I would like whiter teeth before the new crowns are made.The dentist told me that as i smoke the results will only last a few months?.So i may have to opt for two veneers on the canine teeth,which are the darkest teeth. I live in Cyprus ,so a UK visit is not an option with dental costs involved. What do you think about whitening as opposed to the 2 veneers. Do you have any contact info of a clinic that uses the enlighten system in Cyprus. For over 30 years all i ever wanted was a nice smile, now im confused and wary!!!Please help.

Any alternative to place temps after removing old crowns and veneers

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009
Q.
I am having some old crowns/veneers replaced. I have had a consultation and wax-up. My next appointment is to have my old crowns/veneers removed and temps. fitted. What if I don’t like the temps. Will they be what the permanents are going to be like and will I have any control over the shade and shape etc. at this stage. I always thought that temps were made and you could look at them before old crowns removed and be happy with them before proceeding. I am puzzled. Look forward to your reply

I agree the purpose of the tem… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Need to numb again for reshaped or filed down broken teeth

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009
Q.
Hi there. I had to have a tooth refilled yesterday as half of an old one came out whilst eating an apple. Everything went ok, but today above my teeth is very sore and the bridge of my mpouth is very sore, I presume this is because it’s the same place i was injected to numb the area?? I am a very nervous patient, and my main concern is that the replacement filling feels too big and is stopping my teeth come together properly. Is this something that will sort itself out, or will i need to get it ‘reshaped/filed down’? Also will i need to be numbed again for this to happen? thankyou

Advice on redoing composite resin veneer

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009
Q.
Recently, I went into the dentist to get my two front teeth rebonded- composite resin veneer. The first time when I got home I noticed that my front teeth were two shades darker than my real teeth, so I called back and asked them to redo them. The second time, my teeth came out too white(but I don’t mind that much). However, he also made my teeth extremely thick and they seem bulky in the middle. I also noticed when I got home that one of the sides of my two front teeth is yellow. Today, I called another dentist to see if he could slim them down a bit. He refused to try and fix them and literally laughed at my whole story, which I don’t think is funny. He did agree with the middle of my teeth being rather bulky.So after calling two more other dentists who refused to fix his work, I called his office back and I have an appointment for Friday to try and shave down my teeth a little. I’m torn between putting up with the dentist again,and not being happy with my two front teeth that I paid $600 for. Do other people go back three times to get there teeth fixed, and if this were your case how would you react?
