Comment on Instant Veneers – as seen on Jeremy Kyle by Andrew

Hi Elaine and thanks for your comment.
Immediate/instant veneers are perfect for
- hiding/reducing tooth discolouration
- patients who hate needles (no jab required)
- reducing sensitivity in teeth by insulating them
- reducing the time you spend in the chair (done in one visit)
- patients who hate having their teeth drilled (immediate veneers usually eliminate the need to drill down teeth)

I’m sorry I don’t know anyone in Manchester who is using this technique.

Best of luck
Dr Andrew Fennell

Comment on Are false teeth now history? by Julie Selleck

..so I can speak clearly now…and add another resounding success story. I’m SO glad I chose to have an implant 3 yrs ago. Treatment and cost was explained step by step and by letter so I could keep referring to at each appointment. Excellent job. 3 yrs on I needed to have another implant and some extensive restoration work – 3 crowns plus fillings, I had no hesitation to come back. Together with a little aesthetic work on a couple of front teeth(a treat to myself) to complement my tentative smile, which is now wide with pride! All finished and fab. I would like to say a big thankyou to Andrew and all the team for their endearing thoughtfulness and passionate professionalism with charm and humour. So it’s not goodbye guys but see you @ next check up.

Comment on Dental Bridges have had their day. by Andrew

Hi Yvonne.
Unless your dentist has a CT scan (3D x-ray) of the area where your baby teeth are he can’t be sure that you are not suitable for implant placement in the area where your baby teeth are.
At Winning Smiles we routinely remove baby teeth that have ‘outstayed their welcome’ and replace them with implants – usually on the same day! Not sure where you are in the UK but you need to find a dentist who ‘does implants’….I suspect your dentist doesn’t…you know the old saying ‘if all you’ve got is a hammer ever job looks like a nail’?!!
Best of luck!
Andrew

Hi Andrew, I have been told my 2 baby teeth do not have long before they will come out, leaving me with 2 visible gaps. I have been told that i do not have a strong bone structure for implants and that a bridge would be better. What are the long term problems I could face with ether choice?

Immediate Veneers are done in 1 sitting.

Hi Sharon,
Immediate veneers are a good medium term solution for you – but long term porcelain crowns will be more resilient to stains, stay in better and have the edge aesthetically. To work well Immediate Veneers have to be bonded to lots of enamel – which will be lacking in your case. I’m sure it is practised in Ireland. Try Blue Apple Dental – if he’s not near you he may know a man/woman who can who is closer to home?

best of luck with it

Dear Dr Williamsburg,
Porcelain Veneers are superb and nothing can touch them for lustre and stain resistance. However Immediate veneers using the latest cosmetic composites are getting better all the time:
-We can now polish them to an enamel-like finish.
-There are no lab bills so they cost less.
-There is much less tooth reduction (grinding away of enamel to all those non dentists reading this)
-When finished they wear like teeth so no danger of causing accelerated enamel abrasion to the tips of the lower teeth.
-Due to there being little or now enamel reduction composite veneers are usually bonding to lots of enamel with little or no dentine bonding required: they are less likely to fall off than conventional porcelain veneers
-They can be done in one sitting
-Finally they can be repaired seamlessly if they chip without needing to replace the whole veneer

Lots of reasons to love them!
