I’m considering veneers or braces for a “Hollywood Smile”. Would braces be a better idea, or would

Braces? vs Veneers?

I really suggest you start with braces. Your teeth would need to be aggressively prepared for veneers. After the braces if you feel you are still interested in veneers your outcome will be much better.

It is not uncommon for teeth that have had root canals to turn dark. This does not usually happen immediately.Your dentist can take steps to try to keep the grey line from happening by using a more opaque porcelain.

It sounds as if the post has come out of the teeth . If this is the case it may be able to be recemented. There could also be additional problems but without an xray it’s impossible to say. If you are concerned I suggest going to another dentist in your area.

Congratulations on your hard work. I suggest getting an appointment with a dentist who is comfortable with complex restorative cases. This may mean doing some research online.
