Dentist Agreed to Composite Veneers and Then Declined
After three consultations with dentists about teeth whitening and composite veneers, I selected a dentist close to my job. My teeth are uneven, chipped, and discolored. I’ve had teeth whitening by a dentist before, but it made the other problems more noticeable. My dentist did the whitening and said we could wait a week or…

Why Do My Inner Lips Catch on My Porcelain Veneers?
In November last year, I got 8 porcelain veneers on my front teeth, but my teeth catch on them. I trusted my dentist of 15 years for veneers. I have seen the work she has done for patients and have always felt that it looked great. A smile makeover was important for me as I…

Porcelain Veneers for Overlapped Teeth Instead of Invisalign?
Will you please tell me if porcelain veneers can straighten my teeth? I understand that Invisalign is an option, but at age 52, I prefer something faster than a year of orthodontic treatment. My upper teeth overlap. The overlap affects six teeth, but I realize that a dentist may see that other teeth are involved.…

Will Bonding Work for My Peg Lateral Teeth?
I have peg teeth on my left and right incisors. Also, the left tooth sticks out a little farther than my other teeth. I am self-conscious about my small teeth and do not smile for pictures.

What Tools Can I Use to Remove Porcelain Veneers?
I hate my porcelain veneers and am tired of talking to my dentist about them. I asked her to remove them, and she told me that I couldn’t go back to my natural teeth, so there was no need to remove them. She also insists that the veneers I have are what I ordered, but…

Will No-Prep Veneers Work for My Teeth?
I have seen and compared no-prep veneers before and after pictures on several dental websites. Sometimes they look good and other times they do not. I am concerned about how they will look on my teeth. I do not know whether it is a coincidence, but it seems that the pictures that look good are…

How Much Is Needed for a Smile Makeover?
I’m a little confused about smile makeovers. I was told that THE procedure for this was porcelain veneers, but when I went to see my dentist for this, he is suggesting I have teeth whitening, Invisalign, and porcelain veneers. Is all this REALLY necessary? I was under the impression that porcelain veneers can make teeth…

My Daughter's Dental Crowns are Ugly
Years ago, when my college-aged daughter, was a middle-schooler she had a fall that caused some tooth trauma. Two teeth were crowned and one of them even needed a root canal treatment. One of the crowns has turned gray over the years, so we were looking for a solution. We went to this dentist who…

Dental Bonding Doesn't Match and Falls Off
I have tetracycline stains and my dentist said dental bonding would take care of it. It has not worked out at all like I wanted. First, the color doesn’t match and it is pretty obvious. Plus, you can still see some of the tetracycline stains through it. As if that weren’t bad enough, the bonding…

My Mouth is Collapsed
I have always had problems with some teeth grinding. I wear a mouth guard at night as a result. That is the only time I feel like people can see my teeth and my jaw even hurts less. When I am not wearing it, my jaw hurts, you can’t see my teeth even when I…
