Someone said I should get veneers. Do I need them?+
A remark from another person is not a clinical reason. Veneers are elective for most people who ask about them, and an examination can show whether your teeth have any concerns that need attention regardless.
My teeth seem fine to me. Is it silly to ask?+
Not at all. Hearing that you may not need anything can be a useful result, and your dentist can point out whether a simpler option would meet any small goal you do have.
Will the dentist talk me into more than I want?+
Tell us plainly what you do and do not want. Treating additional teeth is not automatically better, and you can ask why each tooth has been included in any proposal.
What would I lose by waiting a year or two?+
For a purely cosmetic goal on healthy teeth, you may simply have more time to think. A tooth that hurts or has changed should be checked sooner, so please call about those.
Can I change my mind after planning has started?+
Yes, planning itself leaves your teeth as they were. The point that matters is enamel preparation, because a prepared tooth continues to need a restoration from then on.
How does an East Kildonan resident ask without committing?+
Request an assessment through this page or call (204) 338-3003, and mention that you are still undecided. The visit would be at our McPhillips Street clinic, and we confirm the time with you.
