    If you don't trust your own dentist , why not change? That way you will get someone you are comfortable with and who will provide you with advice and longterm care you will need.

    Tajak was incorrect in as much as composite bonding is much cheaper than porcelain veneers. It has advantages in as much as no enamel is removed but it stains easily.

    Years ago it used to be advised to have wisdom teeth out if you were having braces in addition to other teeth that were necessary to make space. However now the thinking is wisdom teeth do not necessarily need to come out if you are having braces.

    Don't set your heart on veneers they may very well not achieve what you want or may not be suitable.
