Age 65, want to improve my smile. What would you suggest?

ortho vs veneers
Apr 24, 2020

There are always options and you are fortunate that both may be good for you. There are some things that could be done with braces and done well. In your case, you could accomplish a lot with braces, but it depends on your specific goals. The advantage to veneers is the additional control in the shape and length and subtle features of your new teeth and smile. If you are looking at veneers, you want to address all the teeth that show when you smile and since you are…

Pain and mild face swelling 3 weeks post veneer. Options?

Pain after veneers
Feb 9, 2019

For sure have your dentist look at this. It could be as simple as relieving a contact and allowing teeth to meet better or may be more involved and require treatment of the root. Either way, the sooner you have it looked into, the sooner you can get it addressed and the less involved the solution will be.
A high contact may break the veneer or tooth and if the tooth is damaged internally, then the infection in the bone is not a good thing to live with.

Should I get 2 or 4 veneers? Can anything be done to correct asymmetrical lower tooth line?

How many veneers and what about my other teeth…
Feb 9, 2019

The number of veneers is usually decided by what you don’t like about your smile. In your photos, it looks like you could do a nice job of fixing the front two teeth and make them look like your others, however, they are slightly wide in proportion. That doesn’t need to be changed, but if that is part of what you don’t like, then you could improve it by including a few additional teeth. Two could look great – and if the proportion also bothers you, then four can address…

I got my veneers a month or so ago, I feel like they’ve shifted and I don’t see why.

New veneers aren’t what I wanted…

It’s hard to say if they have shifted, but what I have seen is that lots of people would prefer to address some things about them to make them look more like naturally beautiful teeth.
There are several key features to making teeth stunning that don’t appear to be addressed. There is a balance and proportional width from tooth to tooth that isn’t quite dialed in, and part of that is that there is a bit more gum tissue in your smile than ideal – as well as somewhat…

My upper front teeth are large and not aligned: will veneers work?

Front teeth too big…

For sure they can be designed back in place with veneers or porcelain crowns, but the other issue is to figure out why they are like that. It is most likely going to be a periodontal infection, an airway problem, or tongue habit issue and that should be addressed too. That way, once they are fixed they stay looking great!

So many issues after veneer placement and dentist won’t help, what can I do?

Hating your new smile
Mar 16, 2018

It is a hard thing to get the smile perfect, but you should be able to get closer. I don’t know what your goals are, but if they are like most people, there is a lot of room between where you are and an ideal smile…
Hopefully the sensitivity is not because they are leaking, but because you are hitting them too hard because that can be adjusted. They can also be trimmed down to a more appropriate length. The problem is that they probably still won’t be…

Nailbiting with veneers

Veneers should work just like teeth, but it is not a good idea to bite your nails in general and for sure not with veneers… they are tools for food… not tools for trimming nails or opening bottles… 😉
