Due to years on steroids, my bone density dropped and my teeth took a beating. I brush 3 times a day, floss etc, but it hasn't saved them. I now also have serious discolouration. I am I'm my mid 30's and thinking veneers. I don't want them to shave my teeth (I know somewhat unavoidable), but am scared that this will cause long term sensativity as they are already sensitive to cold. I have an overbite white braces didn't fix (not major). My teeth are kept straight by using a retainer at night.

Answer: Veneers There are many types of veneer designs out there.If you are concerned about sensitivity my recommendation would be to find a dentists who does preparation less veneers. These are quite difficult to do and require an expert clinician and technician team.The advantage obviously being no preparationI would need to see a picture of your teeth to determine if you are a candidateBest of luckDr J

Answer: Loss of enamel, or receding gums there could be 2 things here, sensitivity, could be due to receding gums, or poor enamel, just remember that in both options, you will need to make veneers and they need to hold to a dental structure, and this is something to consider, provably and depending on the smile analysis, x rays, there is a chance that could be crowns instead than veneers, but yes, you have a solution.you will love your smile, shape, size and even color can be changed.send some pictures.
