They fill my mouth, so they must be fillings, at times they 'lie' in a glass, so they must be false, now I am confused.

I buy dental-strength, 35% carbamide peroxide gel on Amazon.com, which is MUCH cheaper than getting it from the dentist. I use that to bleach my teeth every six months--that's not false teeth per se, but definitely 'fake' nonetheless. I also have two composite fillings on my back teeth, and composite veneers on all of my front top teeth.

When you get a composite veneer, they put a layer of tooth-colored filling on top of the tooth to hide stains, correct chips or poorly shaped teeth, and the like. After the filling's placed, it's shaped and polished and to make it look shiny and toothy.

This procedure is also called bonding, but it veneering is more accurate in my case, since it was done to whole teeth, rather than a small part. Using composite for whole veneers is less common and heard of, so I figured an explanation was in due. :) It's a shame, because it's very cost-effective.

I've heard that composite stains easily and doesn't last as long as metal, but I prefer it because it looks natural and tooth-colored. I've kept my teeth well brushed and whatnot, and my fillings have lasted me for six years without staining or discoloration, my veneers two.

you have got a small plate in the hollow and a bridge is likewise an selection. The longer you are able to placed off having dentures the greater effective as in spite of the shown fact that nicely they greater healthful they're by no skill as stable as your own tooth. finished dentures are demanding artwork and it merely will by no skill be the comparable. additionally NHS investment would make it available in spite of the shown fact that it does not propose acceptable high quality laboratory artwork to make the denture............... No dentist will take out your final tooth if there remains existence in them for a set of dentures and although the NHS and dentistry has subjects the main important emphasis remains on conservation.

Fillings, crowns and an implant.

Crowns shouldn't 'keep needing to be redone'... they should last quite a while without incident.
