This is a common result after years of having the Amalgam (silver) fillings in our back chewing teeth. Over time, these fillings start to open up and leak- allowing the saliva and bacteria to seep into the space between the filling and the tooth. Another cause of this is the staining from the Amalgam fillings. The Amalgam slowly starts to stain the teeth and can also sometimes stain the surrounding tissue- causing what is called: "Amalgam tattoos". The stained teeth start to appear gray. This may be an indication that it is time to have those fillings changed and the teeth examined to confirm there is no decay underneath the fillings. I hightly recommend going in to see your dentist to have these teeth examined. You may want to consider having these teeth treated with composite resin fillings or porcelain restorations. Discuss all your options with your dentist. Good luck! Dr. Parnaz Aurasteh
It's a no brainer...do both if you want the the results you anticipate. No need to try and "match" when it won't exactly.
Sorry to hear about your situation. Your questions is not one that can be answered. It is as if you say I am hungry , if I go to a restaurant how much my food bill may be. Clearly your front teeth have large enough decay that you can see them. And the treatment options can vary....
This is common when getting veneers off and new ones one. However, I recommend you consult with your doctor especially if you had any changes done to your dental work in between the time of changing the veneers.
