I had dental bonding done on my front four teeth. The bonding has since worn out. I decided I wanted to upgrade a bit and get porcelain veneers. My dentist said I’m not a candidate for that because of the bonding. Instead, he wants to do crowns. I’m not crazy about that option. Do you have a recommendation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear Laurie,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

My first recommendation is you see another dentist. Under no circumstances should you let your dentist put dental crowns on your front teeth. This will grind them down to nubs. If this were necessary that would be one thing, but it is completely unnecessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can have porcelain veneers<\/a> placed after dental bonding. The only reason your dentist is saying you can’t is likely because he doesn’t know how to place them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In dental school, we’re taught to always be confident with patients. Without that confidence, patients will grow anxious. So, instead of saying, “i’m not comfortable doing porcelain veneers” or “I haven’t done many porcelain veneers”, which could make you (understandably) uncomfortable, he says you’re not a candidate and avoids the issue altogether by suggesting a procedure he does know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find a Great Cosmetic Dentist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cosmetic dentistry<\/a> isn’t taught in dental school. A dentist has to make an effort to invest in cosmetic training after they graduate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you needed crowns, I would suggest a different dentist. To get a beautiful smile, you need an expert cosmetic dentist. Otherwise, the results would be disappointing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In your case, I’d go to the mynewsmile.com website. They have a “Find a Cosmetic Dentist” link. You’ll input your zipcode and how far you are willing to travel to see a cosmetic dentist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key to this site is they have pre-screened each dentist who wants to be listed. They can’t just pay to get on the site. Instead, they have to show their technical knowledge and skill, as well as demonstrate their artistry in their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone they recommend can give you a beautiful smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
