Answer: Best Veneers for Vetetracycline Stained Teeth Tetracycline staining is actually inside the tooth and it gets darker towards the center of the tooth. Tetracycline stains are a result of taking the antibiotic while the teeth was developing from about age 3 to age 10. In your case combination of teeth whitening and porcelain veneers is a great approach for tetracycline tooth stain but make sure you get treatment from a well experienced cosmetic surgeon because you have two things to be correct i.e. teeth color and shape.

Answer: Before considering veneers before you even consider veneers I might recommend orthodontics to correct your crossbite. Doing veneers would create an effect of your having only 6 front teeth. Properly done your dentist should be able to mask out the tetracycline stain but would recommend finding a dentist who specialize in cosmetic dentistry. If orthodontics is not an option I would recommend extensive whitening to decrease the gray appearance.

Answer: Tetracycline teeth and porcelain veneers Feldspathic veneers in general are much more natural looking than Emax veneers. However, your dentist will make that decision base on your habits like grinding. You need to make sure your cosmetic dentist works with a great technician to mask the stainning on your teeth without too much opaquing, as opaquing kills the natural look of beautiful veneers.

Answer: Tetracycline Stains - Veneers or Whitening Preparation for a tooth with tetracycline stain can be very complex. The underlayer is actually much darker than your enamel. Is your goal to address the shape of your teeth or the color? If you are solely looking into the color, do some research on Kor whitening, it has remarkable results and would not involve removal of tooth structure. If you're looking to change the shape of your teeth, be sure you speak with a very experienced cosmetic dentist, based on your photos your case is complex not only for the tetracycline reason but also your bite. Minimal preparation would be very important for your veneers. The dentist needs to use an excellent lab that can build in opacity to block the dark tooth. This may make your teeth appear less natural than a translucent porcelain veneer, but it will address the tetracycline stain you mentioned. Best of luck to you, do your research. Smiles, Dr. Shelton
