I plan on getting a smile makeover for my nephew who wants to be an actor. We went to see a dentist who wants $25,000 for 18 Lumineers. Before I drop that much money, I wanted to get another opinion. His upper teeth have gaps and two that stick out a bit more than they… Continue reading Do NOT Do Lumineers In This Case

Dental Bonding Staining After One Week
I had dental bonding done on my front two teeth. It has only been one week and they are already picking up stains. I do drink coffee, but my dentist never told me that I couldn’t.

Dental Implant Failure in 4 Days
I had four dental implants placed less than a week ago and I have already had two of them fail. I’m so frustrated. I’m guessing at this rate there is not much hope for the other two, right?

Bonding or Crown for a Chipped Tooth
I have a tooth that I chipped in a bicycle accident. I wanted to do dental bonding on it, because that would mean I could keep most of the tooth. However, my dentist said that they don’t hold and he wants to give me a dental crown. Is a crown my best option? Sandy Dear… Continue reading Bonding or Crown for a Chipped Tooth
