My new crown feels too big for my mouth, can I have it filed back?

Tuesday, October 4th, 2011
Q.

I recently had porcelain to metal crown put on to cover an existing tooth that already had a large cavity. The tooth covered was an upper back tooth. The bite feels normal; however the outside out the crown feels like it protrudes from the rest of the teeth. My dentist said this is normal but I feel self conscious like I have a big tooth. Can the crown be filed or smoothed down so that it is flush with the rest of the teeth? Will filing down the outside of the tooth damage the crown?

A.
Yes and yes. The porcelain of … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

What should I do about my dissatisfaction with my new porcelain veneers?

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011
Q.

Dear Dr Hughes

I had 10 porceline veneers fitted yesterday – to put it bluntly they look rubbish, not what I hoped or thought they would look like. my two issues are the colour and the way they arent level. I went for shade OM3 which is the 3rd lightest in the amercian shade range and they seem rather yellow. secondly, the teeth sort of bow – they are sort of lop-sided as in the right side is longer than the left. I actually preferred my temporaries to these! What can I do? I paid £7000!

Thanks
