Crowns vs Veneers - which teeth restoration method do you prefer?
For individuals with chipped, broken or malformed teeth, a dental veneer is the ideal solution. Made from porcelain or laminates, they do not stain and have the look and feel of real teeth. Crowns can be temporary or permanent. Temporary ones are used during the interim, while patient awaits a new permanent crown. Known as dental caps and cemented on teeth, crowns cover and protect large cavities.

What are the pros and cons to porcelain veneers over caps?
Porcelain veneers remove less enamel from the teeth and are preferrable when you are covering discolorations and small imperfections in the teeth. They are not designed for teeth that are not healthy. On the other hand, caps (or crowns) are stronger and more durable and will work on teeth that are not as healthy.
Do porcelain crowns on front teeth look natural?
Yes they do and they are "caps" (crowns are for the molars.) I just spent $12,000 on my teeth and had the front ones capped as well as the bottom front and the rest bonded. You can't tell they aren't your real teeth. Remember, even though the teeth are capped you have to go in for dental check-ups because you can still get cavities.
Do Rembrandt whitening strips work on caps?
No. Tooth whitening products do not work on caps, crowns or bridges. This is because tooth enamel is porous, whereas porcelain caps are not.
What are options if 2 front crowns break off teeth at gum line?
Firstly, when you get front caps (not crowns ... they are for molars) your teeth are files down to points and root canal is usually done with a small "post" inserted to strengthen the tooth. It is going to be entirely up to your dentist to decide what to do. You two teeth may have weakened and they may have to be pulled and perhaps you will end up with a bridge. I have one tooth out on the left front and one on the lower and I have a bridge and you can't tell I don't have all my teeth.
