Question:
What is the best dental work for me? Crowns? Veneers? Whiter?
I have semi stained (yellow) teeth. I'd like to get my teeth whiter. I'd also like to have my two front teeth because they are too long because of bonding. I don't want to have four or six fake looking bright teeth on top though and the rest look even more yellow.
Answers:
I'd go with the whitener. You can do Crest White Stips or the other whitener product with the trays yourself. Are the bonding teeth yellow too? If any teeth were made yellowish during the bonding coloration they won't whiten with the whitener. You can ONLY whiten Natural Enamel. If you have crowns, veneers, or bonding they will stay the color they are now.
As for your 2 front teeth being too long, can you have them redone with veneers instead of the bonding? Ask your dentist. They won't look fake if you don't go overboard with the whitener.
Don't get crowns on your front teeth ~ eventually the underneath metal will show because the gums receed with age and you will have black lines above the proceline crowns.
