Answer Snippet
Is my overbite too much for veneers?
Does an overbite prevent you from getting veneers
Oct 31, 2015
You are correct about having an overbite however this would not prevent you from having veneers done. Your basic tooth alignment seemsto be ideal so the amount of tooth re-shaping in preparation for veneers would be minimal at most. Altering your gum line with a laser can be done simultaneouslyas the veneers. This would give you a more radiant and fuller smile.
Bridge or Implant?
treatment comes with risk
Oct 11, 2015
I would most likely replace the damaged tooth with an implant.The x-ray you posted seems to be off angle so its difficult to see how much room you have but i suspect there is sufficient roomto place one. The financial upside of going to another country for treatment may be worth the risk. I cannot tell you how to spend your money. I can only offer you my best opinion with the information you provided. Lastly it seems that you have enough bone to support an implant at…
What are my options with this tooth?
tooth in the wrong place
Oct 9, 2015
Its unfortunate that braces were not an option for you. at this pointif it really is an eye sore or you do not see yourself doing braces down the roadthen you certainly have the option of removing the tooth. It appears as ifthere is minimal space available to bring the tooth down, so it would require pretty extensive tooth movement in all directions. you always have the optionof putting in an implant later on.
I have a full upper crown and now the porcelain is chipping. Can I have the whole crown replaced? (Ph
replacing a chipped crown
Sep 28, 2015
Your tooth that is chipped appears to be connected to teeth on either side of it.If this is the case you can have your dentist attempt to overlay a ceramic veneerover the tooth. this will spare you from having to replace the entire bridge.if the tooth is not connected and stands on its own then i would just simplyremove the broken crown and replace it with a new one. I would also have your bite evaluated to see why you are breaking the porcelain.
Can I fix my gummy smile and overbite, how?
gummy smile
Sep 28, 2015
There are different ways to correct your gummy smile. you can slightly shorten your teeth while simultaneously elevating the gum line with a lazer. In addition to thisveneers can be applied to change the color and smile profile. A little goes a long way.These are permanent changes so if you are adverse to making permanent changestry using botox above your lip.
How strong is temporary veneers/crown?
How strong are the temporarys your wearing before the permanents are cemented
Sep 26, 2015
Temporary veneers are designed with several purposes. One of them isto restore your teeth with a material that takes on the shape and look ofthe final restoration while you are waiting for the permanent one to be madeby a ceramist. Additionally they are meant to support function and normalday to day activity. A final note is that temporary veneers are also designed tocome off relatively easily by the dentist so he/she doesn’t have to waste toomuch time removing them on the…
Any suggestions for loose dental implant crown?
loose dental implant or crown
Sep 25, 2015
The loose feeling you are experiencing is most likely a loose abutment screwconnection between the crown, the abutment post and the implant. This seems to be the most likely situation. If this is the case then your dentistwill have to try and separate the crown from the abutment so he/she cantighten the abutment screw. If the dentist is unable to separate the crownfrom the abutment, a tiny hole can be made into the crown and the dentistcan create a channel to the screw and…
