I like the idea of carrying the veneers with the suction tip. Shows your experienced handling.
Me too !

@@DrTerriAlani how much does it cost ?
They looked very natural , blended with the other teeth perfectly.. and good idea he didn't get them chalk white!
Right!!
M from Pakistan .. and not afford it but really want ....plZzz tell anything yellow removal as it
@beginning of the end thanks Alot dear ...I can't feel confident just because of yellowness still regularly brush ...I just try it
@@sainraye1409 Hydrogen peroxide can cause significant damage to the protective enamel of teeth if used too often or in too-high concentrations. More serious side effects of hydrogen peroxide whitening include inflammation of the teeth roots in the gums. It does whiten teeth and kill bacteria but has some harm. Make sure you never use a concentration above 3%. You can try baking soda as it's great at removing built-up plaque and surface stains, but it can also damage your enamel if you brush with it too aggressively. Don't overuse the product - Don't use baking soda for whitening purposes more than twice a week. Foods can also cause staining such as curry, coffee, tea, etc. Some medication and smoking as well stain teeth.
@@CC-wx8wk then what I can do ...light yellow stain on my front teeth ...m just can feel comfortable and confident with m a uni going student ....
Ooohh so nice result doc Im a dental student watching this for my fixed exam hope one day I could do such things like you keep going doc
You can do it!
Love this method!!! Had not idea this was even an option, thought it had to be full wrap around veneers
These are minimal prep veneers

@@DrTerriAlani hi! how long do these last?😊
@@ThefattestCatOnMars i've been practicing a long time and I have patients that still have theirs that I did 30 years ago!
She did a beautiful job ❤️
Thanks 😊
Now this is the where you do veneers minimal prep no stick teeth! Anyone that's thinking about getting veneers these are people to go too!
You must have confused veneers and crowns
Very sOon I am gOing to veneers my front upper 4 teeth and This videO really cleared my queries about the procdure. ThankyOu 😊
Most welcome 😊
you got veneers?
I had all mine shaved down and crowned with porcelain in 2007. 10 years later I began to experience failure losing crowns and then losing teeth. My bite changed cracking 6 crowns and losing a bridge I went from a perfect smile to being ashamed of my smile in just the last 3 years. Basically the rest of the work that I had done is gonna fail as well. Now I am going to pull them all and get the all on 4 done on both arches. For a cost of 60k. I need to smile and I'm scheduled for surgery in Aug. My advice is to not shave down the tooth because it will come back to bite you in the butt
Is there any way that the government can help you, like a medical card to help put money towards it unless you have enough money for it.it’s a good investment for your mental health also as confidence and how you feel about yourself all comes from your smile and speech and it’s an awful feeling if you feel ashamed to speak but I hope you do and feel good about yourself in the next few months as you will see a new person looking back at you
So sorry you have experienced this....We have many patients we do crowns on and they last a very long time....Of course it is important to maintain by getting teeth checked and cleaned routinely....And wearing a nightguard will help protect...With that said, veneers are minimally invasive and very little tooth structure is removed so yes, we like to save tooth structure....Hope you are able to get your smile back:)
Wish more people read this advice before pulling the trigger and getting veneers. Your own teeth, no matter how bad they might look, are always x100 better than veneers, crowns, or any other artificial stuff you put on your teeth. With veneers/crowns on, your teeth cannot be naturally remineralized via saliva, and also more susceptible to decay, as you lose the ability to clean them properly.
@@DrTerriAlani Agues I'm getting 10 implants and 2 full arches.
@@DrTerriAlani a long isn't long enough for someone that has to pay twice. Thank GOD I somewhat have the resources.
Tomorrow I'm going to have my replacement veneers bonded (upper teeth only). Three weeks ago was all the prep work and I've been wearing temporary veneers that have fallen out twice. I've got to be careful with those. The old veneers lasted 30 years. That's on the long side of things. I guess taking care of the teeth and being gentle helped with their longevity. The teeth were ground down quite a bit the first time. There's no way to ungrind them, but that's the way it was done back then. I had very bad tetracycline stains. I really had no choice is I wanted presentable teeth. I'll see how it goes tomorrow. The previous appointment was five hours in the dental chair, so plan on a whole day for this procedure.
@@roachtoasties I bet they will look amazing… Let me know how it went… Yes,
Veneers can last a long time and it seems as though you took care of yours. Tetracycline stain is difficult, but I am glad you have a beautiful smile now.
@@DrTerriAlani I went and the doctor and she said these veneers must be redone. She didn't look at them until after I was numbed and ready to go. The doctor then showed me the veneers. I looked at one and totally agreed. I don't know what happened at the dental lab, but the shade was not just wrong, it was totally off. To put it mildly, they were the tooth shade of someone who chained smoked for decades. I doubt any patient comes to the office and says "I want to look like an old chain smoker." The shade that was ordered we agreed to is close to an A1. B1 was too white. Anyway, what can you do. I got to wait a few more weeks because of the holiday.
@ be patient and make sure you communicate with The Dentist about what you desire. Sometimes roadblocks happen, but at the end of the day, if your dentist and you have great communication, you will end up with a great result
@@DrTerriAlani Thanks.
This popped up in my recommended, no clue who you are BUT GIIIIIRL you did amazing those look fucking beautiful omg. If i lived in Texas and had the money I would be going to you immediately.!
Dr Amazing work, how did you prevent the veneers from sticking to one another?
Love all your snap on smile cases they make ppl so happy and blessed.all the work u do is a blessing from above🦋thank god for u.keep the videos comin

@@DrTerriAlani how much would four of these cost? And how can I contact you??
Thank you.
I like how you placed them all in one go. Cured them all and them removed the flash ??
Remove excess cement as we go
This is the first time I seen them put veneers on without them shaving all there teeth down to the pulp that may just have saved him wow thats a first for me I wonder if they do that to alot of people thats mind blowing to me
Justin...The trend today is to do minimal preparation so tooth structure is intact and to leave as much enamel as possible
@@DrTerriAlani Dr. I had my two front teeth crowed a year ago cause one them chipped and the other split in half from the roots up. My teeth weren't ever straight and I was always planning on getting braces till that incident occurred. Can I still get braces even with my two front crowned teeth?
@@DrTerriAlani Thanks for responding so fast Dr. I guess I can start planning again
@@DrTerriAlani I will love to get this done
I would love to get them, what is the starting price?
that was awesome, my dentist said he will grind the front of every tooth, my question is what happens if you have problem with a tooth under the veneer?
Rarely is there an issue ...if decay happens it would be at the margin and the veneer would need replacing
Wow I’m so jealous. Lol these are beyond beautiful. That’s one thing I want so bad is veneers. I can’t afford them unfortunately. My teeth aren’t horrible but that’s my one of my insecurities. I had an addiction problem so they aren’t what I wish they were. Hopefully one day. 🤞🏻🤞🏻
It's never too late ... you may want to check out Snap-on Smile as an affordable option :)
GOD, You're so Amazing Dr Terri !!
How do you floss with them? What if food is caught on the tooth beneath and forms plaque?
Easy to floss as a good cosmetic dentist will make sure of that!
Do you have an answer to R S2002's 2nd question, because that's what I also have in mind.
@@DrTerriAlani hey if I have a tooth that has fallen out in the front what can I do
Hi Dr. Terri! I've been really bothered by the gaps in between my teeth for a while now 😫. Asked this website called Kriss AI, and while it provided me with a whole bunch of options, I'm torn if I should choose veneers or braces to fix up my teeth. But I'm really confused if veneers actually close the gaps overtime or do they just hide them?
I would always opt for braces first… Possibly Invisalign. If there are other issues involved, such as misshapen teeth and gaps, then you may do Invisalign first, and then a few veneers. I would seek out a cosmetic dentist and get an opinion. Every patient is different, so it is very difficult for me to give you advice without seeing you. Veneers only hide gaps… They do not move teeth.
@@DrTerriAlani oh wow is this what KRISS AI said too? what's that kRISS AI thing you are talking about?
is it possible to put composite for gaps instead of veneers? but according to kriss ai, composite is more durable than veneers, is it right Doc?@@DrTerriAlani
this video is perfect for me! I was actually planning to get veneers. Thanks, Dr. Terri! Now I know how the procedure goes. But I'm also curious about this Chatbot Kriss thing @allysondayle😅😅 - what is it exactly?
@@soposhhh1122 it is possible but veneers are much more durable
Which method is more beneficial? Filing the teeth down or no filing?
ALSO what happens to the tooth underneath? Can it stay healthy? Vaneers fall out as your teeth come out from aging, right?
These are the real questions that need to be answered!
I have composite veneers and I can answer your questions. I’ve had mine for 6-7 years now and go on monthly dental checkups, I can tell you that my real teeth underneath is healthy, no cavity and my veneers are still strong. Granted, I take proper care of them. Composite veneers stain a lot more easily than porcelain though, so once I earn enough money, I’d have my teeth whitened. Hope this helped :) Also my teeth was also shaved just a little bit, to accommodate my veneers. So seeing this video made me think if I could get this too.
I just found me a dentist. 😁 Dr Toothlady here I come.
Awesome!
maybe this been asked before but how you detect tooth decay under the venner? Not seeing your teeth means only x-ray is an option?
Even if you can see decay, you need an x-ray to see the extent of the decay. You also need an x-ray to see decay interproximally (between teeth) so an x-ray would also detect decay under a porcelain veneer.
Many times it is visual but an x-ray will also detect it
So glad my parents took us to the dentist faithfully every months to the dentist and I continued as an adult. My teeth are very nice. But my brother got the nubs with veneers because he wanted gold teeth in his 20's
Looks like my next DYI project....just have to find that glue.
😂😂
lmfao 🤣🤣
Time to look for the glue rn🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Try gorilla glue and PLZ keep us updated.
Spray on gorilla glue worked for that hair lady, maybe it could work of teeth.🤷♂️
Excellent and astonishing results! Can you tell me about prices?
Thank you! Our fee per custom veneer is 1680
How will he clean/brush his teeth if the veneer is on top of his teeth?
Dr does the veneers require any surface treatment other the bond application? And what type of cement do you use to get a white & translucent results?
Basically etch and bond then cement... there are many different types of cements… I particularly like ultra bond, super white or super white block out and or Variolink light
@@DrTerriAlani thanks dr do i need to apply any etchant on the veneers surface before the bond? Or just bond then cement
@@Kmo-nl3bs the lab should deliver " etched" veneers but you will need to apply sliane for a minute to the inside of the veneer , blow dry then before cementation apply bonding agent to the inside of the veneer , dry gently , then apply the cement
I did my front teeth in Uzbekistan in Tashkent, and it was 50 us dollars and it was about 12 years ago. They still in good condition. Here in Netherlands I am afraid to ask about prices.
They are amazing but wonder how is he going to protect his orignal teeth from cavities and bad things i notice the gum was bleeding so a sign of infections?
it is a very tight seal so no leakage happens
Great job Dr. I'm always checking to see if the veneers are flossy and still natural looking. I hate hate HATE seeing them not natural looking and more "ultra perfect" it just doesn't sit right in my spirit 😭
Well want to make sure that spirit is happy ! Thanks for watching!
And how much does these veneers cost pls ? Thanks they looks great you did an amazing job!
Thanks so much! Each veneer is 1600… They are custom made
What if it falls out in lunch party while taking hard food?... Just curious that's why I'm asking
Veneers do not fall out:)..Each veneer is bonded to the enamel which creates a very , very strong bond and can last up to 25 years....Veneers can chip though if you bite into something extremely hard like a bone, but so would your natural tooth:)
Wow. That. Was. Very beautiful craftsmanship I still want to get this done but I have a crown Hope they can do something like this
Thanks so much!
Yasss ma’am this is what I want !!♥️♥️♥️
Omg this is my ultimate dream to have a great and confident smile. Hope someone will give and will sponsor me huhu i really hope so
work like everyone else and buy them urself
LOL My Dream too! I would give almost ANYTHING to have beautiful teeth like this...even if just in the front where they can be seen. Wish someone would sponsor me too or I would win a contest or something! My teeth have always been taking care of, always told my home care was good. Now, after this upcoming Friday when I have 3 more teeth extracted, it will be 6 teeth in 3 months. Every root canal I had went bad after a while because I could never afford a crown. I was told my biggest problem is medications I take and that I am a mouth breather when I sleep. I use Biotene now before bed, but still wake up with my mouth dry like a desert. The dental pain I have had and have is about a level 9 or 10. Been treated with so many different antibiotics but still
suffering. In USA, the Federal Govt. should have atleast basic dental care for every US Citizen for FREE.
Find a sugar daddy
@@despinav472 Lmao
WOW, they look amazing
Thank you!
What does something like this cost? This was amazing
Thanks Karen, our fee is between 1400-1600 per custom veneer....We use a boutique lab and get great results!
@@DrTerriAlani per tooth?
Yes per tooth
This shit is expensive
@@DrTerriAlani Hi I am a poor dentist, with an ugly smile. Will you help me 🙂
His bottom teeth are perfect. Does he have crowns on his molars? Also curious why his front teeth are so discolored/seem weakened in comparison to bottom + is there a slight chip on his natural front tooth??
No crowns on molars ... the video shows the upper teeth After minimal preparation. The yellow color is after some enamel has been removed
So what happens to your real teeth being under the veneers for 20 plus years
Cavity will eat them
wtf so true
@@rawrrwar4152 😂😂😂😂 facts
My exact thoughts
depends on your oral hygiene...even without veeners
Great,, but could u plz say his gum were ready to apply them? I feel one of them was bleeding
Absoloutely fabulous, don’t cleaner more even teeth make you look more attractive!
Thanks!
Wow that looks beautiful. Do teeth prefer to be veneered or crowned?
Greetings from Nashville, Tennessee. After following your posts and watching how these veneers look, would you consider them if a person were retired and 67? Thank you, and have a great summer. Jim.
Hi Jim I am that person nearly 67 and just retired had my impression today and veneers fitted in 2weks treat to myself after 51years of graft hope you are Pleased with them if you decide to go ahead Ged from England
Love my Texas tooth lady!! Absolutely the best!!
Thanks so much!
That’s what I wanted. But my dentist said I shouldn’t get them cause it comes off easily.
Yep!! It does
@@jameskahango4031 depends on how you take care of them, but they actually do come off easily they aren’t stable
I've been a dental assistant for over ten years and I will tell you this is true. These are good preps and the technique is solid, but because the veneers don't cover the whole tooth they will not last 20 years without coming off, even with nightguard use. I think veneers are fine if you have major aesthetic work you want done, but it's not without high cost and most dentists will not admit that veneers don't tend to last and don't work at all for some patients. I look at this and I think about how this dude will never bite into an apple the same way again, lol.
@@senilegnave lol so true! The money hungry dentist will not admit that veneers aren’t worth it, but a non money hungry dentist would admit that it isn’t worth to get! And money shouldn’t be spent.. but yeah! I’ve known ppl who got veneers and they instantly regretted it! The reason for that is everything changed, they couldn’t do what they did before they wanted to get them
True!
You can’t eat anything hard like nuts 🥜 or carrots 🥕 etc
Fantastic...what about floss for interdental cement ..thanks
They are indeed beautiful!❤️
Thank you !
Hello 👋
What shade is this?
Are you familiar with Imako? What would be comparable to their Bleached shade?

hopefully one day you can:)
@@DrTerriAlani how much is that per tooth or in this patient’s case?
@@XX-166 1600$ I seen her put this price in another persons comments,
@@originallegendz8325 wow…depending upon how you value your smile it’s worth it for sure. Nothing wrong with taking care of self sometimes
@@XX-166 ye it’s very expensive, in the future it’ll decrease probably, and they maybe bringing out stem cell treatment in a few years, where it’ll regrow i biological brand new teeth using catalyst
Dr as i’m new dentist to the veneers world does the veneer needs any treatment before placing the bond as i’ve seen some use HF acid & silane some don’t so i got confused
So I used to do acrylic nails in a salon, the technique looks similar, and you know what I’m thinking.......lol no, I wouldn’t dare🤣
Lol, i was thinking the same. Reminds me of putting my nails under the uv light to cure the gel polish 💅🏾
Yes, many cosmetic techniques remind me of the nail technician procedures!
When I went to uni to become a dental technician we had a girl who was a nail tech in my class. She had some benefits from it in the beginning actually. She was use to working on details and the drills 😁
Remember me when you reach one million subscribers!
That would be nice!!!
I'm a dentist too. What kind of etchant and bond do you use? And the second question is... will the patient be able to floss with so much excess of cement? Thank you.
I also would like to know this ?
U a dentist? Wat kind of dentist .u don't do veneers?
You save money on floss
Sem espaço entre os dentes pra que usar fio dental? Escova intervenção e uma boa escovacao resolve.
These are nice but do they affect you’re gums? If not treated properly.
When done correctly, the gum tissue stays healthy and free of gum disease
I've seen videos where the teeth surfaces are prepped by contouring and filing (surface) with drills. Is this necessary?
Our office does minimal preparation so enamel is still present....Dentists are much more conservative now and we try to remove as little tooth structure as possible...however , there are times when more tooth structure must be removed to get the desired result....
@@DrTerriAlani how can I find you in texas. I need work done
Amazing dr. What is the shade of cement?
This cement is Ultrabond super light by DenMat
How Much Do The Procedure Cost I Was Thinking About Getting Them
Same
About 1200-1500$ per tooth
Too much for what they are 😂
@@CNaylor91 It's cheaper to get 14k gold grills.
@@rg7846 yep 🤣
Woooow… Im soo shook. I would really get these. Is it expensive ? What’s the process ?
Veneers are expensive but last a very long time ... 1600 per tooth
After I got my braces off years ago my 4 front teeth flare and stick out. Do I need to get this fixed before veneers or can the veneers be shaped so my teeth dont look like they stick out?
You probably did not use a retainer....You would need to get braces again to correct the flare before veneers
Dont push your teeth with your tongue, if that happened to you, its because you did it after removing your braces, check out « mewing » by dr mew
Thinking of getting a set of verniers. My front uppers are experiencing gum receding. will this method work, and will the results be natural looking? Will they have to make the vernier longer to go up to the gum line?
If you have a little recession then the veneer will go to the gum line and cover the recession… If it is a lot of recession, then you may need a gum graft…
Mam if I have gap between two front teath and i want compositive filling but these two teath 1 is outer a little bit what can i do
Would really need to see you in person to evaluate ...but perhaps simple bonding may do
will they break if you bite on the something hard. what about when you brush how strong are they?
You absolutely can brush your teeth just like you would your natural teeth...Very important! Also, you can chew just about anything but I would not bite directly into a carrot which is super hard… Avoid super hard food , other than that eating as usual:)
@@DrTerriAlani Thanks since you are putting veners on top another tooth will the teeth get infected or create bad breath any long term effects?
That’s what I need wow 🤩
Come see us!
My dentist suggested this but there is some tooth size reduction before this procedure, will that give any side effects in future.
minimal prep is the way to go and if it stays in enamel. there should be no issues
@@DrTerriAlani Thank you
Incredible! Beautiful!
Does insurance cover this kind of service or no since it’s a cosmetic procedure?
I doubt it since it’s a cosmetic procedure.
Alex, unfortunately not...any cosmetic procedure is not covered by insurance
Cool video doctor - I’ve had my seven veneers for over 35 years and unfortunately my grinding chipped my left front tooth. Right now I’m living with it but my dentist wants to replace both of them because the right has started to chip away on the top but I guess my question is why are veneers so freaking expensive!! 😩 i’m going to probably get them replaced but probably one at a time.
First of all, thanks for your comment and question...I would recommend wearing a Night Guard at night to protect your veneers if you are not already wearing one....As far as expense, there is a lot of skill to be a cosmetic dentist....A good cosmetic lab has expensive lab fees to fabricate the veneers and the materials used in the procedure are expensive as well...The impression material, temporary material, cutting burs, instruments....you name it, it is all expensive plus the countless hours of continuing education a dentist takes to be a good cosmetic dentist....
Do these veneers have to be measured to match the client's teeth are are they kinda one size fits all?
They are absolutely custom made and not one size fits all....Many measurements are done prior to sending the case to the lab as well as numerous pictures of the patients profile, full face and teeth preparations....
I've lived 33 years and I haven't smiled once without covering my mouth . I watch these videos just to dream about it lol but my kidney is not worth as much as this procedure costs
It's less expensive in india..

Its not worthy is more luxury than doing anything good in your teeth, that keeps falling out, and can irritate your gums if is not place well
You can do this procedure in Albania for a lot cheaper and the quality is pretty good

@Abhishek patil veneers can last up to 25 years!
@@DrTerriAlani so that’s $1,400 -$1,600 per tooth/vaneer? Can they be flossed too? That looks amazing
@Abhishek patil no Snap-on Smile is removable as you want to make sure you can clean your gums and teeth underneath
@Abhishek patil yes veneers can break but it is not that often ...it can happen and then we just remake it
How do you take care of the natural teeth behind? Does floss fit?
It is a perfect seal between the veneer and the underline tooth… So rarely does any decay get underneath… It is as if the tooth and veneer are one
@@DrTerriAlani thank you
Looks so amazing. Thank you for sharing as l am thinking of doing this to my teeth.
What happens to your teeth underneath? what's the maintenance/upkeep/cleaning like?
nothing happens to the teeth underneath....maintenance is regular cleanings and proper brushing and flossing and a night guard
Nice result and like the minimal preparations. I have always placed one veneer at a time rather than many which I would be apprehensive about doing. Love that suction you use for placement and removing excess cement. Who manufactures that ?
Thanks doc ! It is called a Lumi-grip by DenMat
Do we not need to put atleast plastic strips in between each tooth so that when we cure the bonding agent, the teeth will not be bonded together.. plus doc, i think that the left central still has old composite in it at the incisal edge..
Should have tried flossing too
Thanks for your comment but we clean as much as we can before curing and then use a mini-saw to break contact...It is ok to leave old composite on an edge and just bond to that...but again, thanks for your comments!
i have two crowns on my front teeth, is it possible if you replaced with veneers? i'm not satisfied with my crown, it was moved forward due to biting
Filling -> veener -> crown -> implant
Unfortunately, once a crown is done it must be replaced with another crown so yes it can be replaced but with a crown:)
If they don’t stain do you still floss or brush??
I'm glad to learn you don't have to have your teeth shaved down to do this, and that if for some reason you want to reverse the procedure you can. This guy's veneers are too white for my taste but I know you can get them custom colored to look more natural. Saving my pennies.
Hi Miranda...we do little prepping but they are typically not reversible as we do take a bit of enamel away....The patient can choose the color but now days, everyone wants white!! We do have colors that are not so white though...Patient preference:)
Could you tell me the colour this patient chose. Does this thin veneers have a name. So u can chase the up in the UK. Cheers. Beautiful job.
I believe BL2 ...Emax veneers
Dr.Alani will this cause problems long term to your natural teeth?
Should not ... we do recommend having your teeth cleaned and checked twice a year
It’s like curing gel nails but it’s with your teeth
Yep! Good analogy!
@@DrTerriAlani Okay but honestly, is this basically the same stuff as UV-cured primer, then base gel, then polygel because I feel like it is.
Or I feel like it is a tooth formed with acrylic but adhered with primer and UV base gel.. not that I am getting ideas or anything lol
@@userkl7999 maybe using a light but the procedure is much more technique sensitive
Is there any chance of bacteria getting in at the back of the veneers like if it’s not sealed properly?

So veneers can be applied without shaving the tooth down to a stub? I’ve been confused this whole time? 🤔
That’s a crown ☺️ currently in process of getting those
Yes:) We do minimal preparation and stay in enamel
after placing veneers is it possible to bite food on front teeth
@@sumanahariharan9779 yes but not hard foods such as carrots
I’m looking into getting these. What would a procedure like this cost?
Our fee is 1600 per tooth....Make sure the dentist is experienced in cosmetic dentistry and he or she uses a specialty lab as not all veneers are the same!!
@@DrTerriAlani nah that’s too expensive
@@apxxx8494 If you do it in Brazil it’s going to be $400 per tooth, I did and they’re amazing.
@@cultureshock9236 hmm that’s way better
Did you manage to do this without shaving down the teeth?
They look so good!
Thanks so much!
