Why are my veneers becoming so discolored when they have only recently been fitted?

Dr Kailesh Solanki — Fri, 03 Dec 2010 16:02:58 +0000

Hi,

I have 8 porcelain veneers which i have had for around 7 months now. They cost ALOT of money as I’m sure u know, however over the past 3 months i have noticed them to start and discolor slightly…. they are nearly the same colour as my teeth previously (which weren’t to bad just not bright white) obviously i am upset about this as i haven’t had them on even a year yet!! just half a year! i went to my local dentist last week (this wasn’t where i got my veneers done) and asked him why he thought they were discoloring so soon and he said there may have been a slight problem when bonding, therefore liquids are getting behind my veneers and leaking through :s? does this sound possible? he said i may need them replacing as they will get worse!! do you think my cosmetic dentist will re-charge me so soon after having them done when it is no fault of my own??

Thank you for taking time to read this.
