There are often no or minimal complications when carrying out treatment on teeth which need no or minimal preparation. If you have any concerns about your procedure, we welcome you to come and speak to one of our dentists in the Hertfordshire area near Waterford and Ware.
When extensive tooth reduction is chosen rather than moving teeth with braces, or on some occasions, sensitivity may arise. This may last for a few days. This can be reduced by applying Sensodyne Gel.

If the tooth reduction is severe, which could occur in the below situations, then there may be a risk to the tooth requiring a root filling:
Teeth that have had extensive treatment previously may be weak at the outset, in this scenario the option will be given whether to avoid porcelain veneer. A complete assessment will determine this.

The side effects also reduce significantly with correct maintenance and aftercare.

I have had an excellent experience having my teeth done here. The staff are all lovely and Dr David Bloom is exceptionally good, explaining everything, making suggestions and the finished work was beyond my expectations. Crucial to my treatment was a referral to the periodontist to address gum disease that was present. I can happily recommend Dr David Bloom and his team as the standard of the work is superb. I am very happy with the work undertaken.
I had a great experience. I was made to feel so comfortable by the team and Dr Sam took time to explain the whole process. I had veneers fitted. I highly recommend them.
