    Anyone any experience of these? It's tempting. They're thinner and lighter than clip on ones. Link here:

    Can't afford to have implants or veneers (would need about 10 for the front) and this seems like an easy solution.

    Anyone any views on this?

    They look bad to me and actually are a little dangerous. The website says, "We're a Professional Design Laboratory that Specializes
    in NO DENTIST - Removable Dental Veneers."
    I looked at some of those patient videos, some have uncontrolled decay and one lady had obvious acid erosion issues. Placing a set of "veneers" over the teeth can only exacerbate the decay and acid damage. Having no dentist involved means that the original problem that led to the patient being unhappy (decay/ wear/ malalignment) is not address but masked and would likely get worse with this new set of "veneers"...

    Avoid imo

    They are a kind of joke in dental circles, they look appalling generally, very thick and goofy, and have a all joined together piano key appearance. They are uncomfortable and sometimes loose. They cause gum issues, and do nothing to fix the underlying dental issues. Its a bit like wearing a low quality brad pit rubber mask to make yourself more attractive.

    There are no simple fixes for a realistic, healthy looking smile unfortunately. Shopping channel waste of money type thing.

    My friends sister got them...threw them away after a couple of days, terribly uncomfortable and tbh they looked fake as anything to everyone who saw them on her, she was embarrassed to smile after the first few looks she got. Avoid.
