This will require him to grind your healthy teeth down to nubs.  He is likely saying that because he doesn&#8217;t know how to do porcelain veneers. I&#8217;ll give him credit for having a creative excuse. I&#8217;ve never heard a dentist use an overbite as an excuse. In reality, an overbite is easier with <a href=\"https:\/\/delaunedental.com\/new-orleans-porcelain-veneers.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"porcelain veneers (opens in a new tab)\">porcelain veneers<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can see from the image above that a tetracycline case can be made to look stunning.  There is a big &#8220;HOWEVER&#8221; when you&#8217;re considering this though.  Smile makeovers aren&#8217;t taught in dental school.  Instead, a dentist has to invest in post-doctoral training in order to truly know how to create a beautiful smile. Now, factor in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebmconsult.com\/articles\/tetracycline-stains-teeth-mechanism\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"tetracycline stains (opens in a new tab)\">tetracycline stains<\/a>. These are among the most difficult type of cosmetic cases to do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What you need is an expert cosmetic dentist. The images above show a  tetracycline case done by Dr. Delaune. You want to find a dentist with his training and skills in artistry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Finding that Expert Cosmetic Dentist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing I will suggest is you look on the mynewsmile.com website. This site is run by a retired dentist who is accredited in cosmetic dentistry. He screens each dentist who wants to be listed for both their technical training as well as looking to see what type of beauty they create in the cases they do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing to be aware of, I&#8221;m pretty sure whichever cosmetic dentist you end up with will suggest more than six porcelain veneers. Most of our smiles are at least eight teeth wide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This blog is brought to you by <a href=\"https:\/\/delaunedental.com\/new-orleans-porcelain-crowns.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"New Orleans Dentist (opens in a new tab)\">New Orleans Dentist<\/a> Dr. Duane Delaune.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have pretty bad tetracycline stains and wanted to get porcelain veneers to help cover them.
