Answer Snippet
What is the method of using sand to allow attachments to stick on veneer surface? Can it damage the p
micro-etch
Nov 27, 2017
Like somebody already mentioned, its called micro-etching and it roughens the surface of the veneer. Ideally, those teeth could have been excluded and no attachments placed, but your dentist should be about to polish the surface at the end of treatment.
How can I get rid of this brown dot on my tooth?
Decalcification
Nov 27, 2017
It is a de-calcified spot. It was caused because you weren’t flossing enough at some point and plaque was sitting between those two teeth. You can get rid of it by doing a simple filling.
My two front teeth are a bit jagged and have shortened over the years. I would like bonding done, so
Bonding will chip
Nov 25, 2017
I concur with Dr Maddahi. Bonding won’t work as it’ll chip from your grinding habit. Save your money for the veneers. We offer veneers starting at $749/tooth.
How much will it cost for teeth whitening treatment?
Depends where you live
Nov 22, 2017

With Invisalign, how many trays can I get at one time?

Can bonding material keep my front teeth gap closed and improve my appearance?
two veneers may be a better long term solution
Nov 17, 2017
Bonding is a good option if you want to close the space between teeth, however your front left tooth looks shorter than the right tooth. Adding length with bonding usually isn’t the best option since it WILL chip. I think two porcelain veneers will be more expensive in the short run, they’ll be more durable and more cost effective if you account for the repairs and touch ups that will be needed.
Age 30 and the bonding has discolored. Is dental bonding the best option?
Yes it can but consider this..
Nov 13, 2017
Dental bonding stains. The amount of staining can depend on how well the bonding was done, but mostly it depends on your diet and wether you smoke. Drinks like coffee and red wine are especially bad for bonding.
Keep in mind dental bonding looks it’s best the day you get it and slowly stains and wears after that point. Typically they last 5-10 years. Your bonding has lasted 22 years!
Your options now are 1) replace bonding with n…
