Hello doctor,

I have discoloration on six of my upper front teeth. They are yellower than my other teeth. One of the teeth is crooked. Please suggest if I should do veneer for all six teeth or whitening for all teeth.

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern.

It seems you have done strong bleaching on your teeth that has eroded some portion of the enamel, and now your teeth look yellowish. There any many procedures for tooth whitening, and veneering is the last option. So, I suggest you get a dental scaling (oral prophylaxis) done. Do not use any type of chemical solution that may increase the yellowness. I request you upload the pictures for better understanding.

I hope this has helped you.

Thanks and regards.
