Before you get Dental Veneers Watch This! | Are Veneers Worth It?
Before you get Dental Veneers watch this! I'll go over the pros and cons and your alternatives to veneers. Veneers are not for everyone so the better informed you are the better your choice will be.
WHAT ARE VENEERS?
Veneers are thin shell covering made from durable, long-lasting material covering the front part of your teeth. Your dentist will shave down the shape of your natural teeth to attach the veneers with dental cement.
AM I A CANDIDATE FOR VENEERS?
You may be a good candidate if you have discoloration, and whitening hasn’t been effective. Some may want to close spaces between their front teeth.
TYPES OF VENEERS
There are various types of veneers with various materials. The most common types are porcelain (or ceramic) and composite veneers.
THE PROS AND CONS OF DENTAL VENEERS
THE PROS
Veneers create beautiful esthetic smiles.
Veneers can dramatically change the appearance of teeth after trauma or chipping.
They are the best solution for a white smile if your teeth are discolored.
Veneers are extremely stain-resistant and durable.
THE CONS
Your veneers won’t last long if you develop gum recession and gum disease as you age.
They’re expensive and aren’t covered by insurance.
Veneers need to be replaced every 10-15 years.
Prepping for veneers involves the removal of enamel. So the effects are permanent.
You can’t whiten veneers, so if your natural teeth change in shade, you will have to get a new set to match the shade.

I have had the same beautiful set of porcelain veneers for 26 years. This year, I have decided to replace them due to some gum recession. Being 63 years old, I hope this set will last as long as my current set has. Chances are, they will outlast me!

@@dianewebb3343 There is no reason that they will not last 20+ years if they are properly set. Mine would have lasted much longer had my gums not receeded. They had to really fight to get them off! I got the new set last Thursday and they look great. Also, my dentist basically has a "bumper to bumper" guarantee on them for the 1st 5 years as long as you are in every 6 months for cleanings. This is the same dentist office that set my first veneers...only now the son has taken over.

Super helpful! I had double jaw surgery with a 3 segment lefort on top. My ortho team has done what they can, but I have a couple decent gaps they just can’t close without messing with my brand new bite. I was debating between bonding/composite veneers and porcelain, and you definitely helped me decide that porcelain is probably right for me.

Hey everyone. If you think of getting veneers, i just want to tell you that there is always a risk that it can go wrong. My dentist did a mistake and all my 4 front teeth died. I had extrem pain, nobody took me serious in the beginning, and now all 4 teeth are dead and i am in pain since 2 years. So really think about the risk even if it's not common. If you have a nice smile, but nothing you can smile about anymore because you are suffering all day long and pain killers don't work, than it isn't worth it! If you are young and really want to change the look of your teeth, look for non-prep veneers!

So, it sound like you haven't invested in a cad cam like Cerec which also is enhanced with cone beam 3 d imaging. Impression trays and outside labs are not an option for my dentistry. I like your explanation of candidates. I would agree that labs can do a great job and using high tech dental equipment isn't for every dentist. My dentist has 15+ years in using high tech equipment to treatment plan and mill his own lab materials, so that is my preferred option. Also, it is done with less visits.
Omg love the picture memes and stuff lmao 🤣

What about if I have spaces. Front 4 teeth are straight but discolored but I have gaps. What do you suggest.
What if we have bad teeth I have all my front teeth it’s just my molars that r gone or chip and wisdom teeth so do I get the teeth fixed then get veneers
Do they have to shave down the teeth more the second time around?
if you have bridge, do you have to remove??? thats not going to be very easy right?
What about if one gets veneers and then wants to go for bonding while their teeth are not in original condition anymore and have been filed (not too much - just as much is required for veneers). Is it possible? Thank you
Will yiu sacrifies your natural teeth for veneers or use braces to close gaps? I need help on making the right decision
Very helpful, considering veneers but I grind my teeth. Cannot keep night protection as they annoy me. I’m also worried about if the colour of the veneers is too far from my own teeth, lest say if I only take 4 front teeth as dentist recommended.

I heard never do just 4 teeth. That’s what I don’t understand. Who wants new teeth to match the old teeth because that’s what they’d have to match or it wouldn’t look consistent. I also grind my teeth and my lowers are chipped but uppers are fine.
What about enamel loss or fillings??
My upper teeth are better than lower teeth. My bottom teeth have some chips, so you’d have to do both upper and lowers to have the color match. Correct? So I’m looking at 16 veneers. One quote was $38,000., other $16,000 . Experience vs. newbie. I do t think I want an inexperienced dentist doing my teeth but the other is outrageous. Still looking and will probably never have it done. Any suggestions?

Holy sh!t my eyes! Blinded by your bright teeth! 🤣
I am absolutely terrified of shaving down my teeth for any cosmetic dentistry. There are pros & cons for all the options just gotta do extensive research, watch plenty vids * testimonials & choose what may work for you. Im looking towards composite bonding to build slightly on my teeth without any shaving. It looks nice & natural in many cases. Cons? it may be too bulky, unnatural looking, & yes i know it stains, fades, wear down over time ( lifespan about 5-10 years) but id prefer this over the risk of long lasting tooth pain and dead teeth. Also everyone's dental habits are different, im hoping with my diet and how i eat & care for my teeth; it will give me a good run with the bonding.
I wish I could afford it I would get them!!
My dentist did a bad job. Added too much bonding then took it off then took enamel off with it. Possibly caused nerve damage. So dissapointed. Looking for options now.

Don’t trust this dentist. The orthodontic treatment aligns and keeps your teeth alive and in good condition. The veneers is like a prostatic member. They shave and drill your teeth leaving a small teeth like a grain of rice and cover it. This needs to be fixed every 10 years ($$$) and there is no turning back to natural teeth once the teeth is shaved and drilled. Teeth don’t grow forever like hair.
