• Posted to Do Dental Veneers Look Fake? on 25 Oct 2012

  was reading through the responses and they are all right on. Well trained Dentist and well trained Ceramist. The only other thing i would mention, not sure if it has been, is the material selection. There are a number of materials out there for the lab and dentist to choose from. strength and aesthetics will be the criteria for selection. although you would think it would simply be to choose the most natural looking material its a little more complex and is going to be determined patient by patient. That being said. some of the new ceramics have incredible strength and aesthetics. things have been getting bette year after year.

  Hi Megan, may i ask. are you very active? There are some reports within the community that very active people can have muscle function return to normal faster. Also, how many times have you been treated and have you had the unit dosage moved up at all to try and get the result to last the 3 months?

  Hi Maggiem thought i could help with your questions. Once your personalized dosage is figured out (its different for everyone) treatment in the area your interested in should last approximately 3 months. After that the muscle activity will return to normal , it will not be worse. In fact if some of the dynamic lines are due to habitual movements, and you stop those movements for 3 months, you may find you have also stopped certain habitual facial movements. Some patients tell us they felt their botox lasted longer than 3 months and this would be the most likely explanation. But for most muscle movement will return.

  I agree completely with Megan. "Prepless" can't be used in most cases and when they are used do have some issues. Bulkiness is one but the bigger issues it the margin placement of the Veneer can't be hidden and when it picks up stain it will show - especially at social angle views. "Prepless" are also limited to very aligned teeth, that are not heavily restored, or discoloured. People with crowding, dark staining, or existing fillings have to have some preparation of the teeth for Veneers to be successful.
