I am unhappy with my teeth

[Maya]

Hi

I have very discoloured upper front teeth which stand out when I smile and I try hard not to show them when photos are being taken because they look so yellow and stained.

I have always been unhappy with my teeth, well at least since I remember and I have decided that I would like to have a smile makeover to make them whiter and more straight and generally have a smile lift.

Could you tell me what sort of treatment you would recommend for my smile makeover? What is the procedure for getting a smile makeover done? How long does the whole treatment take to finish?

Hi,

Thank you for your question.

What type of smile make over would be ideal for depends on a lot of factors which need to be assessed clinically before any suggestions can be made. But in general the appearance of the teeth can be improved by means of porcelain or composite veneers. There are numerous photos in our galleries of the cases that are done by different techniques at pear dental clinic which you can visit.

Composite veneers usually need one visit where as porcelain veneers will need couple of appointments. In first visit the preparation is done and in the second the veneers are fitted.
