So I went to the dentist and we talked about what I can do about the discoloration on my upper right central and lateral. The doscoleration is from old filling material and so whitning alone won't fix the problem; although, I am getting whiting done.
She told me I should get the upper right and left centrals crowned and get veneer's for the upper right and left laterals. I do have a chip but it doesn't cause pain of any kind, I supposed I can see why I might crown that... I also have a bit of overlap on the upper right and left centrals so rather than get braces I suppose I could get them both crowned. I understand why the upper right lateral needs a veneer but why, even if I get the two centrals crowned and a veneer on the upper right lateral, would I need a veneer on the upper left lateral? Is all this work really necessary? Perhaps I can get away with just two veneers on the upper right central and lateral along with some whiting?
