A housewife has been awarded £50,000 after a dentist fitted her with a new set of painful veneers over her decaying smile, resulting in losing two of her own teeth.
Vania Spanias, 45, from Barnet, north London, visited the dentist after becoming concerned with one of her teeth becoming discoloured and it was recommended that she had veneers fitted on 16 of her teeth.
But when the new veneers were fitted over her decaying teeth, Vania claims that she was left suffering with ‘so much’ pain and infection.
She said her veneers quickly chipped, fractured and became discoloured, leaving her with painful toothache, before Vania devastatingly lost two teeth.

Vania had visited Dr Pamela Porras-Benito at Azamay Dental Spa in Cockfosters, north London, between March 2014 and March 2015 after becoming concerned about one of her teeth discolouring.
She said: ‘I was a bit concerned about discolouration at one of my teeth. I saw Dr Porras-Benito and she recommended I had veneers fitted on 16 teeth.

‘She was singing praises about veneers and indicated they’d be right for me, 신촌역 치과 so I decided to go ahead with the treatment.
I suppose I just trusted her professional advice.’
But unfortunately for Vania, things quickly took a turn for the worse after one of her veneers cracked, despite her dentist giving ‘the impression’ they were ‘virtually indestructible’.
