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.

Very detailed and thorough explanation, thank you!

Great video!!!! Thanks for the informative info! 👍🏼

Awesome video! Very informative and quick! Thank you! 😄

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.

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.

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!

Do they have to shave down the teeth more the second time around?

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?

Also, always go where they have an in house lab.

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.

Im wanting to fix my smile. I've been to the dentist and he said. I have all 4 wisdom teeth and they are going to pull them out and then i have to get some teeth filled for health issues. after this they are going to get me on Invisalign to fix the teeth to get that horse shoe shape. then they said would be doing veneers. what do you think I should do?

This guy would put me off going to the dentist for anything at all.

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.

My daughter wants to get Lumineers but I told her as long as they Don't shave her teeth down !!!!

Ive had my veneers for over a decade, as my 2 side teeth didnt grow in right. So had these 2 veneers at side with these black/silver plates stuck to back of 2 front teeth, making your 2 front teeth darker! So I got 2 veneers on my front teeth too! 10 yr later, I'm asking to get these replaced as I just dont like them and probably lost shape since. So i'm booked in to get new veneers, which dont have the black/silver plates sticking to back of front teeth, they'd be white so front teeth dont look as dark.I didn't know whether to have whitening aswell though, as obviously this'll cost even more. Would you sugest to get whitening too? I'm starting to think just go for it.

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.
