what is best for flourosis crowns veneers or microabrasion
Q. Hiya, I am 22 years old (female), I have had flourosis stains since the age of 14.I have been told that the stains are deeply embedded in the front two teeth – this is the only place that are visible..otherwise my teeth are okay. I want to know what treatment I need. I have been told either crowns or veneers, but I have done a few reading around and found a case study that the patient had similar staines to me and a so called microabrasive slurry was used to remove the deep stains. Please let me know what I can do. Help?!
A. Thank you for your question. Micro abraision only works if the stains are superficial. If your stains go deeper into the tooth then microabraision may actually make them worse. Veneers are the best option for you because only a minimal amount of tooth structure needs to be removed. Crowns are too destructive and completely unnecessary. Find a dentist that is used to carrying out cosmetic procedures, ask to see a portfolio of before and after cases.
