Appearance: Veneers improve the appearance of the teeth without sacrificing the whole upper tooth to install a crown. Be aware that veneers may last a long time, but they usually eventually require replacement.

Veneers: Whether crowns, bridge, or veneers, a solid foundation is necessary so it's important to treat the "bad teeth" and eliminate potential periodontal disease. This will provide optimal situation for success of veneers or other restorations for function or esthetics. A thorough treatment plan and patient to doctor communication is vital for success.

Make BIG difference: Porcelain veneers are a way to repair front teeth, straighten your smile, or whiten it. With the right veneers your smile can be strong and look beautiful. I have seen a number of my cosmetic dentistry patients actually take better care of their teeth after they got veneers. In that sense them getting veneers actually saved their teeth. In the end, it still comes down to you caring for them well.

Not sure they will: Why are your teeth "bad"? Can't answer without more info. Veneers are rarely a solution to major problems except for aesthetics reasons.

They won't!: Your bad breath is from bacteria. More than likely on your tongue or around your teeth. See your dentist or see a new one if they claim veneers will correct bad breath!

What is bad: What is meant by bad teeth? It truly depends on what you mean by bad. Crooked? Stained? Crowded? Chipped? If any of the former are the case then absolutely we can help your teeth with veneers. The real issue comes with us not knowing what might constitute bad. It's always worth a look. Come visit a dentist that can help you. Hope your bad teeth become something you can call good!

May or may not: The ideal use of veneers are to cover the front surfaces of teeth in cases of staining, some rotations, small chips, asymmetric contours, enamel defects, etc. For a more esthetic smile. They cannot and should not be used when there is extensive decay, undermined tooth structure, gum disease, etc. See a dentist to determine what treatment is most appropriate for you.

Most often not....: This entirely depends on the source of the bad breath. There may be more than one source. We all battle with this to some degree. While veneers may correct a dental problem with the front teeth I am not sure that will entirely solve the bad breath. Please seek the services of a well-respected, nicely reviewed online, dental professional. I hope you find what you need ..

How bad R UR teeth?: The real question is how bad are your teeth and are veneers the appropriate solution! if your problems are discolored fillings, minor mal-positioned teeth, cracks so than veneers may be in order. Severe decay, abscesses, missing teeth and a more extensive treatment plan may be in order. Your best option is to have your dentist take all the necessary diagnostic records and help you select best 4 u!

Hard to say: What is your definition of 'bad', and how 'bad' are your teeth? Veneers are a cosmetic covering of the facial and sometimes occlusal surface of your teeth. They will make your teeth look better, but it's unclear if that is what your teeth need.

Bad teeth??: I am not sure what you mean by bad teeth. Are they decayed ? Or are they aesthetically displeasing? Veneers and crowns are a good option to correct a lot of aesthetic problems as well as protecting the teeth that have had a lot of work on.
