I know this might sound a little silly.But I was thinking about getting porcelain veeners and zoom whitening.I don't know if it will help my breath any.We all know how it is to live wit BB.I was wondering will I be treated better by people If I had a FLAWLESS SMILE.Or will they say that girl has pretty teeth,but her breath stinks or will I even feel better if I got a smile makeover.My teeth aren't bad and they are clean,but I'm desperate for some kind of relief.I don't have the money,but this dentist will allow me to make installments.Will a FLAWLESS SMILE make a difference in how I am treated even with BB.Will a FLAWLESS SMILE make me say the HELL with everyone who talks about my BB.Will I feel better with MOVIE STAR TEETH AND SMILE OR WILL IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE.HELP ME OUT GUYS-I AM DESPERATE

Porcelain veneers are crap unless you really need them. I think there are two types of porcelain veneers. The older ones where they also infuse metal inside the venners (jacket?) and the newer (and more expensive) ones where they use 100% ceramic that is supposed to be at par with metal in terms of strength and durability.
I had all my upper in fixed jacket for a few years and I think that's when I began having metal taste in my mouth. Three years ago I changed it to the newer veneers, which btw crippled my pocket. I lost that metal taste but still had bb.
Anything that is metal in your mouth attracts fungus overgrowth. This is the only thing that is stopping me from tooth implants, which I desperately need.
If you don't have any problem but bb, don't alter your natural teeth.

i think u should do whatever that will make u feel better inside... as long as it isn't something that can harm you... i have braces that im about to get off hopefully and i every time i look in the mirror and smile , im pleased with what i see and it improves my confidence .. definitely not completely, but a little bit and every little bit counts... we should all do as much as possible to improve our personal outlook of ourselves
