How do people get new (or new-looking) teeth?

I was watching some makeover show about 3 women - they called them gobble girls or whatever - and all of them had pretty bad teeth. One in particular had them totally unstraight. And then dentists gave her new teeth that looked very good but were definitely not just her her teeth bleached and straightened. Or I just finished watching this movie Sicko, and in one scene one who was constantly grinding his teeth "got new teeth" in a Cuban hospital. Do they implant some porcelain teeth? Would appreciate any info.

Veneers are thin strips of Porcelain that are cemented to the tooth underneath. They are great for closing small gaps and disguising other imperfections. A small amount of natural tooth is removed to accommodate the Veneer.





Porcelain Crowns are basically a jacket that fits over your existing tooth. They are used to correct more severe imperfections and can also correct alignment to a certain extent. This procedure means having quite a lot of your natural tooth shaved down to fit the jacket.
Reply:ya Porcelain Viners . Some times they will remove teeth and use implants , all depends how extencive your mouth is .

Reply:They are called veneers or lumineers. They are materials added over the teeth that makes them look perfect and even.
