Are snap on smiles as good as veneers?

Friday, September 18th, 2009
Q.
hello are snap on smiles as good as veneers somebody told me they are painless and dont cost as much as dental veneers but look great. Do you offer snap on smiles?

A.
No, I do not offer snap on smiles. They are less expensive that veneers but of course they are not going to look as beautiful either.  Patients with crooked teeth are not good candidates for this treatment because the snap on smile would be very bulky. Porcelain veneers are a permanent and durable solution.

Is laser technology going to replace drills and needles in dental treatment?

Friday, September 18th, 2009
Q.
I have read about lasers and other new technology being brought into dentistry. I hate needles and drills so am delighted to hear this. Is this something that is gradually going to replace such methods in the long term? Is it completely safe? My dentist does not seem to be taking on such methods as of yet.

A.

The science of Laser dentistry is developing rapidly. There are many different kinds of lasers in dentistry that are used for different treatments and they can speed recovery and healing tremendously.
