Hello Dr. I heard that all BL colors are Artificial and all other colors are Natural look. Does that mean there is big difference between BL4 and B1 in therms of natural looks? (In both cases is about e-max crowns) Thanks!
Hi @velimirkoshevic7940, Thank you for your comment and for watching the video! You’re right that BL shades tend to look more artificial, while other shades offer a more natural appearance. However, the difference between BL4 and B1 is very subtle. If you’re leaning towards BL4, I recommend going for it. Just make sure to ask your dentist for samples of both colors so you can get a better idea of which one you prefer.
Hi Jay, thanks for tuning in! I appreciate your question. Changing the color of veneers after the procedure isn't as simple as adjusting natural teeth. Typically, if someone wants to alter their veneer color, it means replacing them entirely with new ones in the desired shade. If you're considering veneers or contemplating a change in color, don't hesitate to reach out! We're here to assist you in making informed decisions and achieving the smile you desire.
I will have my a1a2 porcelain veneers glued in about 2 weeks. I wanted to have it a2a3 but mai dantist said the color it will be too dark. I am 45 and I am concerned a1a2 might be too light for my age.
Thank you for watching and subscribing! As a 45-year-old man, I personally find A1A2 to be a solid color choice. However, I completely understand your concerns. It might be beneficial to consult your dentist about previewing the veneers on your teeth before the final bonding procedure. Other option is request your dentist to provide color samples of both A1 and A2. Dentists usually have a color guide that can help you identify which shade suits you best. During the trial, you can examine the color in front of a mirror. The methods previously described can provide you with a better representation of how the color will look. I hope this suggestion proves helpful to you!
What undertones are in the BL shades? Everything else seems to have known undertones (brown for A, yellow for B's) but I can't find anywhere what hues are resembled in the bleached shades? I chose BL4 but it did look a bit grey to me
Hi thanks for your comment, when it comes to dental shades, particularly the bleached shades (BL), the undertones can indeed be a bit different from the traditional A and B shades. The BL shades are specifically designed to mimic the appearance of naturally bleached teeth and aim for a brighter, whiter look. If you're looking for a less grey and more natural white appearance, you might want to consider moving up to BL3 or even BL2, depending on how bright you want your smile to be.
Thank you for your comment! 😊 I'm glad to hear you love the brighter teeth! Sometimes, brighter shades can create an illusion of larger teeth due to the way light reflects off them. If you're considering a whiter smile but want to maintain a natural look, discussing the right shade with your dentist can help achieve the perfect balance. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel!
That's awesome! BL3 is a great choice for veneers-it offers a bright, natural look that's very appealing. Have you already scheduled your appointment, or are you still in the planning stages?

Thank you Dr Rodriguez. I just figured out what's wrong with the shape of my implant Bridge. I prefer more to Flats and straight edges instead of round and bulgy teeth.
Hi @Al_Idrissi_ Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your preference. I'm glad you figured out what you prefer in terms of the shape of your implant bridge. If you decide to change it we would be happy to help you achieve the look you desire. Best regards, Dr. Rodriguez
Porcelain or E-Max veneers. Look a little dull after one month of having them. I do drink coffee and have cut it out completely. I take care of them as far as brushing/flossing. Is there anyway to restore the bright whiteness?
Hi, Dear. Thanks for reaching out. From my experience a noticeable change in Emax porcelain veneer brightness after a month is unusual. It's best to see your dentist for an evaluation. They can confirm the material and suggest solutions. Feel free to contact us if you need further assistance. Best, Dr. Rodriguez
Hi @sammisambuca, Thanks for sharing your preference! B2 Hollywood is indeed a popular choice for a natural-looking smile. We definitely want to avoid those Dracula canines! 😄 If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out. Best regards, Dr. Rodriguez!
😊 Wow . This is the best video that discusses choosing the right color of veneers . I'm planning on 8 upper veneers. I hate the natural color of my teeth . They have always been yellow gray . I'm going to choose BL2 because my skin is very very light , I have light white scleras, and outgoing personality. Thanks so much for your help 😁
Thank you so much for your kind words! 🥹 I'm thrilled to hear that you found the video helpful. BL2 sounds like a fantastic choice, especially with your light skin and bright personality-it will really make your smile stand out beautifully! If you have any more questions or need further advice as you move forward with your veneers, feel free to reach out. Have you already scheduled your appointment, or are you still in the planning stages? Feel free to share your journey with us, and thanks for being a part of our community! 😁
Haha, true! Red teeth would definitely be a bold choice! 😅 But there are so many great natural shades to choose from to get a bright, beautiful smile. If you have any questions about veneers or need help selecting the perfect shade, feel free to ask.

Blonde hair, light/med freckled skin, white eye area, Hazel eyes, 9 on top, born with B1 color... But gaps. Smile alot in conversations.. What color do you suggest?
Hi Dj, hard to tell without seeing you. Follow this next suggestion to help you when choosing a color. Request your dentist to provide color samples BL1, BL2 and BL3 (OM1,OM2,OM3). Dentists usually have a color guide that can help you identify which shade suits you best. During the trial, you can examine those colors in front of a mirror and choose the one that matches your preferences. This method can provide you with a more accurate visual representation, and you'll be able to make an informed decision. Thanks for watching the videos. Best regards. Dr. Rodriguez

I am so confused and can’t decide between Bl1 and Bl2 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️I read the comments and some people who did Bl1 regretted because it is “too white “ and others who did Bl2 regretted coz “ they should have gone lighter “ 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️. My doctor recommended Bl1 for me and I am little worried.
Thanks for watching, I'm glad I can help you and others. If you're having trouble deciding between two colors, I have a suggestion that might make the decision easier. You can request your dentist to provide color samples of both BL1 and BL2. Dentists usually have a color guide that can help you identify which shade suits you best. During the trial, you can examine both colors in front of a mirror and choose the one that matches your preferences. This method can provide you with a more accurate visual representation, and you'll be able to make an informed decision. Thank you for considering this option. Best regards.

Hi buddy Im not sure if I understand you completely, but here is my answer Zirconia and Emax are different materials, so I can understand at the end they stand out in your photos especially if the dental work was done separately, Regarding this last crown have you tried to find out with your dentist why this one was made separated than the other 3? Kind regards @user-jh8gf4mg6v
I had braces and had to pull my top 2 wisdoms and 2 top bicuspid. What would be the best amount 4 or 6? And a technical standpoint it is very challenging for my shade because of the very high translucency and white color of my teeth BL1 wasnt even close to my natrual color😅 please help...
Hi thanks for your comment. Ideally I would have to see pictures of your smile, but generally speaking, I'll always recommend 8 or 4 rather than 6. Why? Because with 6 veneers the treatment ends on the canines, which means the transition between your natural teeth and the veneers wouldn't look as smooth as it would look when the veneers ends on Bicuspids or laterals teeth. If you have more questions or need further guidance, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to support you on your smile transformation journey. Wishing you all the best for great results and a radiant smile that reflects your dreams! Kind regards, Dr. R

I am choosing veneer/ crown shades I went with b1 but now I’m thinking I should call and change to bl 2 possibly? Has anyone gotten b1 and regretted it?
Hello, thanks for your comment: Hopefully this answer can help others "In my opinion the best way to decide between 2 colors, is to consult with your doctor and specifically ask them to place both colors near your lips and allow you to examine them in front of a mirror. Most dentists can perform this try-in using a color guide, which is readily available in every dental office. By doing this, you'll gain a more accurate visual representation and be better equipped to choose the shade that suits you best" Kind regards
@@serenaraquel3961 I ended up settling on the bl2 shade I am very happy with it It doesn’t look too white at all but I do feel if I went bl1 it may have been too bright
Hello, thanks for watching the video I hope this was helpful, and appreciate your comments. Everyone is unique in their own way, I can agree with you to some extent; however, I also believe that poorly shaped veneers, combined with the whitest opaque color, contribute to their artificial appearance.
