Q.
I had a veneer six years ago to replace one that broke. The veneer looked very good when fitted colour etc, but immediately upon eating found that the bottom teeth hit the underside of the veneer. Returning to the dentist they then took away some of the back of the veneer, which made eating ok again.
Six months later after eating a piece of hard bread the tooth cracked at one side. Again returning to the dentist they smoothed down the tooth, it was now slightly shorter and rounder.
I did contact the dentist 2 years later who said they would replace it, as I preferred the original veneer, (unfortunately they couldn�t find the original mould) but thought the same thing could happen again so I decided to leave it.
However never being entirely happy with this tooth I wondered what your thoughts were, and if cosmetic bonding to fill in the slightly chipped look and to make the tooth slightly longer would work?
The tooth next to the veneer has been aligned slightly with composite bonding that was done at the same time the original veneer was fitted by the dentist.
Thank you.
