My New Veneers Look Darker Than My Bottom Teeth In Natural Light, What Can I Do To Match Them Up?

Tuesday, January 7th, 2014
Q.

Hi Mark, what steps would you expect a cosmetic dentist to take to ensure a match to whitened teeth when replacing old veneers on other surrounding teeth? I had very yellow bottom teeth lightened successfully with Enlighten. After the whitening I got new veneers on my top teeth but my new veneers are actually darker than my natural bottom teeth. I only noticed when I got home and looked in a mirror in natural light. I contacted my dentist right away but he says he is not responsible and I must pay to replace if I’m not happy. I only got the chance to check them in a poorly lit mirror in the surgery with artificial lighting and couldn’t bare my teeth properly as my mouth was so numb. I never thought they could end up darker than my natural teeth and I trusted my dentist when he said they were a good match to my natural teeth. He also gave me some more Enlighten to try and lighten the tooth under the veneer from the back of the teeth which seems unlikely to work. I would really appreciate some advise on this as my dentist is just saying I should live with it or to get them redone.
Kind regards.

How Can I Whiten My Naturally Yellow Teeth?

Monday, May 13th, 2013
Q.

Hello i have yellow teeth and i have had it all my life as i can remember. I think thats my natural teeth colour. I was wondering if you would kindly direct me towards the best option for whitening my teeth. Because of this problem i hardly ever smile with my teeth. My sister’s teeth are not white either but when compared with mine they look really white. Please is there anything i can do to whiten them other than bleaching? Can you recommend anything that would be very effective? Also I would add that I use arm and hammer advanced whitening, do you think that would at all be useful for my teeth? Thank you in advance.

Q.

Hi, after using the enlighten treatment for the past three nights i’m finding the tips of my bottom teeth and the back small teeth are whitening but not much happening any where else.
Am I filling the trays with the gel incorrectly?

I have very bad teeth as a result of having mumps when I was younger, can I get them whitened?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010
Q.
Hello, when i was young i had mumps which lead to my teeth not developing correctly, as a result i have horrible patchy yellow-ish marks on my teeth and they are generally in bad condition, i find that my gums often bleed and even eating some foods make my teeth feel as if they are just going to break off. Obviously i want to get them whitened and was wondering how much this would cost? Any other tips would be helpful because i REALLY do not want to have my teeth falling out before i even get to university in september. xx,

How much would lumineers cost me in the UK?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, I’m 17 and very self conscious about how un-white my teeth are. I don’t smoke, drink tea or coffee- they just grew out like that, and I don’t know but maybe it’s due to calcium deficiency. One of them grew out with a dent and the rest, although now straightened by braces, are still discoloured, I want to get lumineers, but it doesn’t say anywhere I have found how much they would cost in the UK. Could you advise me? Thank you so much!,
