Alternative Fix-ups for Stained, Chipped, Damaged Teeth

By Nia Lawrence


Porcelain veneers cover the tooth stains whitening treatments can't remove. There are a handful of options to choose from; it all depends on your dentist's recommendations and your budget. You can remove minor stains with routine applications of whitening strips and prescription trays. These improve the teeth's shade and lighten discolorations, but the results can't compare to the benefits of professional whitening procedures. You can't complain about the results, even if you compare these with the costs of the treatment. Professional tooth whitening is a bit pricey; your dental insurance may not cover for the procedure so you'll likely shoulder the costs on your own. You should weigh options with your dentist before you commit.

Dental veneers are reasonable priced, but multiple placements will rack up the costs. Porcelain jackets aren't your first options, though, especially if your problem only involves minor tooth stains. If you want to maximize the benefits, then you should invest in laser teeth whitening procedures. Treatments involve up to four consecutive sessions; each exposure lasts fifteen minutes. You'll pay for each session; but, the costs depend on the results of the first exposure. The full treatment drastically improves on the stains; your teeth can skip seven shades after an hour. You don't have to worry about leaks and overexposures, since the procedure is conducted in a proper clinic by a skilled and certified specialist. Laser treatments can enhance the results of the applications, but you can forego the added expenses.

Veneers and resin fillings have similar functions, but you can settle for the latter for restoring minor damage like cracked or chipped teeth. Resin bonds are also used to cover gaps between teeth; your dentist will customize the colors so it matches with the shade of your real teeth. Fillings are often used to cover cavities on back teeth, but these blend well enough with real enamel to be used on front teeth. You'll have to mind your oral hygiene, though; the contrasts of shades are evident once tooth stains surface on enamel treated with resin fillings.

Porcelain jackets cover up tooth stains and damage, and the attachments last up to seven years with proper placement. Stains, cracks, and chipping which can't be fixed by bleaches and resin bonds are easily remedied with custom-fit attachments. The treated teeth are shaved to accommodate the placement. You can't tell the difference between real teeth and porcelain veneers after the procedure.

You'll have a handful of restorative options to choose from. Consider your dentist's recommendations on affordable, viable options.
