Question

Hello ! I am a 27 year old woman and considering veneers or some sort of cosmetic dentistry procedure to help correct the appearance and provide protection/support to my smile. Several years ago I was diagnosed with enamel hypoplasia which resulted in some discoloration. Unfortunately this condition is incurable and my teeth are even more prone to staining, cavities, etc. Looking for recommendations on what's the best way to give me the smile im looking for !

Hello,

Given your enamel hypoplasia, porcelain veneers or dental crowns could be effective options. Both provide protection and improve aesthetics by covering discoloration and reducing susceptibility to damage. Porcelain veneers offer a natural look and are stain-resistant, while crowns provide more comprehensive coverage. I recommend consulting with a cosmetic dentist to determine the best choice tailored to your specific needs.

I have seen great results when using veneers to protect and beautify teeth affected by enamel hypoplasia.  The strong ceramic fronting helps protect the exposed dentin and pitting and can produce dazzling results that greatly increases confidence and aesthetics.

Enamel hypoplasia is when the enamel on teeth doesn’t form properly, it can become chalky looking, weak, sensitive to heat and cold, and susceptible to cavities.The dental treatment itself depends on the severity of the condition, but its main goal moves along the lines of: Tooth decay prevention, Good bite maintenance, Tooth structure preservation and keeping teeth looking their best.Porcelain veneers and dental bonding are good options to improve the appearence and provide protection of your teeth.

HelloPorcelain veneers would be an excellent option for you. They will strengthen your teeth and give you a cosmetic look you Are looking for. I recommend the thin feldspathic ( hand made veneers) for the best result.
