Expert Advice from Dr. Dmitry Gorbatov

Hello, my dear friends. Today we’re going to talk about when it’s time to change your old restorations, whether veneers or crowns, and the reasons for doing so. My name is Dr. Dmitry Gorbatov, and I’ve been practicing cosmetic and holistic dentistry for more than 30 years right here on South Ocean Drive in Hollywood, Florida.

Signs It’s Time to Change Old Restorations

So, when do we know it’s time to change old restorations? Here are a few indicators:

• Gum Retraction: If you notice gum recession around your restoration, whether it’s a crown or a veneer, it’s a sign to consider a change. This often happens due to possible leakage underneath the restorations. Bacteria can create a home under the restorations, causing the margins to darken and the gums to recede due to chronic inflammation.
• Chipped Teeth or Crack Lines: Any visible damage, such as chipped teeth or crack lines in the restorations, indicates the need for replacement.
• Cosmetic Upgrades: Even if your veneers are relatively recent, say five or six years old, there might be a need for change. Sometimes, initial cosmetic work might not fully meet your expectations or aesthetic goals. At Gorbatov Dentistry, we take a comprehensive approach to smile design, using advanced techniques to create a beautiful, customized appearance.
