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!

I'm in the middle of getting mine replaced (upper teeth). The current set lasted over 25 years but the gums have receded on a some of them. One thing the doctor on this video mentioned is the 1 to 2 mm of tooth structure removed is just a "little bit." No it's not, and you have to realize you'll need veneers for life. Look at a ruler and see what a millimeter is. If you won a foot race by a couple of millimeters, OK that's small. When you compare a millimeter to the depth of the tips of your front teeth, it's a lot.
@00ResevАй бұрын
That's what i was thinking! 1 or 2mm is "a little"!? No its not, its a heck of a lot! Your frontal teeth must have around 3mm at the point, and may 6 to 7mm at the base. 1 or 2mm is far more than i ever thought would be necessary to remove.

Veneers back then did require more grinding of the teeth than they do now, but there's nothing I can do. My natural teeth were very dark. The newer ones are being done at Fuller Smiles.

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.

hello doc- I have 2 front veneers I had done around 9-10 years ago. I chipped the left veneer on a tiny bone about 4 years ago - it is barely noticeable - but then I chipped the 2nd front veneer last year, a bit larger chip this time (biting on another bone again - you'd think I'd have learned the first time!). I reached out to my dentist who was fab (his work was flawless - no one even knows I have 2 front veneers unless i tell them!) , but now it's going to cost around 3K per tooth to replace them, maybe more because of additional things that "need to be done". One would think with so many folks doing veneers that the price would have come down quite a bit, but apparently not. Does this price sound too exorbitant? Probably not for the dental practice on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

What is the procedure or is it even possible or advised to remove a already placed veneer for example in a case where you had veneers placed on two front teeth and one came off after some time and you decided not to replace the one that came off but decided to remove the one that is still on? I suggest not to get veneers unless you have really messed up ugly looking front teeth and unless you got ton of money to reveneer every 10-12 years. If the veneer comes off and you can not afford to redo again you will be left with some shallow pointy teeth with nasty gap of 2mm.

I didn't need a specialist because I pulled the teeth myself that his hygienist left hanging loose in my mouth. That was 5 years ago and my front tooth on the right side of my mouth is now bucked and feeling loose. I feel like crying.

This doesn’t sound like a hygienist’s mistake. They don’t hurt you and they don’t use instruments that can cause such things. You were able to get those teeth out by yourself (especially wisdom teeth) so i think you might have overestimated your condition. Most likely you already had a lot of problems, maybe dental calculus build up, bone loss, gingival retraction. The dental tartar might have been the only one keeping your teeth into place and when it got removed you felt them dangling. Not enough Information to give my opinion though. I advise you to seek professional help from a periodontist which is the doctor that treats gum diseases. I’m sorry this happened to you, but don’t lose hope!
