Would veneers work to hide brown stains on teeth?

Thursday, August 16th, 2012
Q.

hello doctor moore,  i need some advice from you as i am really suffering. i have brown stains on my bottom teeth and i’ve tried everything to get them away but with no success. i have a denture but only 2 teeth at the back of my teeth are clear from decay. and ive got 2 types of arthritis so my teeth look like they are fading in colour now. can you help me smile again? how much will it cost me? i am disabled due to my arthritis and house bound. i am 40 and really don’t feel like smiling cause of my teeth. i think veneers would be good for me as they would brighten my smile and make me feel happier. i don’t think i need any teeth replacing so can you advise me on the cost? thanks.

Can my overbite be fixed with dental veneers?

Monday, August 6th, 2012
Q.

I have an overbite. Both my top and bottom teeth jut out. I’ve been having on and off ortho work done for years and years. But turns out my doctor was a quack. And they are still not fixed. They are due to the fact that my teeth r just too big for my mouth. My bottom teeth are very close together not fully overlapping but the edges are very close and slightly overlap each other. I want to know if this all can be fixed with veneers. All the jutting, the crowdedness, all of it and I’m willing for them to shave down my teeth for as long as my lips fall on my teeth a lot nicer when closing and for a gorgeous smile. Can this happen? What do I ask for?

Why do the cosmetic dentistry procedures vary so much in price?

Tuesday, July 10th, 2012
Q.

Hi,
why does cosmetic dentistry vary in price so greatly. I have had 4 consultaions and all the prices are completely different for the same procedure?? It makes it impossible to choose the right dentist as your left wondering WHY are they £1000-2000 cheaper or more expensive. Its crazy!??
The procedure I have had consultaions for is for 4 porcelain veneers fitted to my top front teeth to close a gap I have had since the age of 12.

My veneers are constantly coming off, why does this happen?

Thursday, June 28th, 2012
Q.

I had two veneers when I was 16 years old because my big teeth either side of my front teeth never came through. These I had until recently with no problems. One side of my lower teeth I do have an over bite so one of the veneers was shorter though I can live with this. 2 months ago I had then redone to improve colour and straighten them slightly but I have been back several times now as they keep coming out. The dentist has had one of the veneers remade and prepared the tooth differently (this is the tooth which has no overbit) but again today it has come out eating a soft chocolate bar. Obviously I am very self conscious of them now and so disappointed. What would you suggest and why would these not be staying in.
Thank you

Is there any way to save my veneers, even though my teeth are decayed?

Monday, April 16th, 2012
Q.

I have two veneers on front and side tooth and have a cavity behind the side tooth that is excruciating. The dentist said they think it is too far gone to save and want to remove both veneers and possibly do a bridge since the tooth is so decayed. What will they put in place until the bridge is ready and is it necessary to remove both veneers and how do they remove the veneers? They also mention doing root canals on the one tooth but aren’t sure until they remove the veneers. Can’t they put veneers back on somehow? thank you for your time Doctor Moore, I hope to hear from you soon

Can you have your teeth tattooed?

Thursday, August 18th, 2011
Q.

Dear Dr Hughes
Can you please tell me if it is possible to have a tattoo on the teeth ,All the information i have read so far seems to imply that a tattoo can only occur on the soft tissue ,ie on the lips ,tongus ,pallete,skin,etc .
I would also like to know the reason why a dentist would do an amalgum filling then cover it with a porcelain crown .
I look forward to your reply
Thankyou for your time and for considering my question.

Why will veneers make my teeth look bulky?

Friday, July 15th, 2011
Q.

Hello, I want to have veneers on my two top front teeth as I dislike the shape and colour of them (I currently have composite fillings which are unsightly looking).

Two dentists however have told me that veneers would look bulky on my teeth. I don’t understand – why would they look bulky if a veneer is the same thickness as the amount of tooth removed?

My teeth are in line, but I do have a 6mm overbite (which does not bother me). Would this be why they might look bulky?

Can I get veneers free on the NHS?

Thursday, June 2nd, 2011
Q.

Can I get veneers fitted for free on the nhs? My local dentist have told me it will cost me 650.00 to have two veneers fitted on the front of my teeth as I have a big gap between my two front teeth and I don’t like the look of it. I had braces to close the gap between my two front teeth when I was much younger but as I’ve got older the gap has just got too big, please help me? Please also let me know if there is any such help/grant available to help with the cost of veneers, I am currently not working and on benefit?? Also receiving Child tax credit and hold an nhs exemption card.
