How Can I Improve the Shade of my Veneers?

Wednesday, March 11th, 2015
Q.

Hello there. I have never been happy with my veneers as they were not the shade I was expecting. They are a yellow shade and I cannot improve them. Is there any solution other than replacing them? my veneers have been in place for around twenty years and are in very good condition other than the shade of them. Is there any product that is available to improve the colour or appearance of them? Thank you.

My Teeth Have Gone Black After A Root Canal Making My Veneers Discoloured. Is This A Common Problem And How Can It Be Resolved?

Monday, January 27th, 2014
Q.

Hi. Just over 2 years ago I had a smile makeover at my local dentist. This involved teeth whitening first and then 6 upper veneers and 3 lower. I had to have root canal on 3 or 4 of the teeth because my dentist advised me they had to file the original tooth close to the nerve.
After 2 years I have noticed 2 have started to go black. In my opinion it’s the tooth behind that is black and it is starting to show through the veneers making the veneer seem darker than the others.
I have been to see my dentist and she advises nothing is wrong and the only thing she could do if I was still worried would be to drill the veneers off and smear white cement over the original tooth and replace with a new veneer at my expense of course!
Is this a common problem and how can it be resolved?
Do teeth tend to go black once root canal has occurred?
I can send a picture if that will help explain my issues. Thanks.

Is There Any Way Of Finding Help With The Cost Of Veneers? My Veneers Are Discoloured And I’d Like Them Changed.

Friday, November 15th, 2013
Q.

Hello, Dr Shaffie. I am trying to find the cheapest way of having my discoloured veneers replaced. 5 on the front top set. I am so unhappy that they are all slightly different colours because they have been replaced at different times. Do any dentists put offers on?
I suffered from bulimia for many years and the bottom teeth are all eroded. I am not a person who has loads of money! Can you please advise me who would help me. Thanks I look forward to hearing from you.
