Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
I have two damaged porcelain veneers (chipped at top and side respectively). Do I need to replace
Not Necessarily
Sep 17, 2018
If the lab is the same or can match the others, then replace only the chipped ones. You do not have to replace all six unless they need it.

Best cement for translucency? (Veneers)
A Transparent One
Sep 17, 2018
Wow…never get a patient asking this question very often. Any transparent light cured resin cement will work. I like neutral and go from there. Never use opaque white. As a patient, I would leave it up to your dentist to pick and use try in gels to get the result you want before final cementation.

Side of front tooth uncovered by veneer?
Maybe
Sep 17, 2018
If the veneers were done recently and the gums were retracted with cord, it may take a few weeks for the tissue to come down and for the papilla to cover the exposed side of the tooth. Also if you work your acrylic temporaries for a long time and they were all joined together, the gums may have been pushed up and once again time is needed for them to return back down again. Give it at least 2-3 weeks if you did not have gum surgery in conjunction with veneer placement.
If it is still…
Was it a mistake getting veneers at 19? Very depressed
It will be OK
Sep 17, 2018
Veneers done well will last 15 years plus. They appeared in the literature in the early 80’s and so have not been around for 50 years yet. I have been placing them since 1988 and I have some that are still in place at 30 years. The only change is the esthetics but functionally they are still stuck. The patient’s gumline and wear are the main changes.
Be prudent with your hygiene and enjoy them. They are a good investment if it improved your appearance and made you feel…
Can eating foods that require pulling damage veneers?
You will be OK
Sep 16, 2018
Chewing and pulling should not dislodge the veneers if they are bonded in correctly using the products we have available to us today. Enjoy!

Bottom nightguard to protect upper veneers?
Depends on your Bite!
Sep 16, 2018
The night guard may have been made on the bottom teeth because of a deep bite or for a functional reason. You will be fine and the veneers are not likely to break if chewing and grinding movements are protected by the night guard.
How is gum resorption fixed after bone graft?
See a Periodontist
Jul 10, 2018
Hi there,
Once the bone thickness and height have been levelled and built up as much as possible, see a gum specialist or periodontist to augment the tissue with gum grafting before considering placing implants. The bone and gums must be in place first or esthetics will be compromised.
Best regards,
Dr. Ed Lowe
