Why my veneers looking black and can they be replaced?

Q. Hi, I had veneers fitted to my 4 front upper teeth about 3 years ago, two are now looking black & one of my front teeth are loose, why would they go black looking? & can I have them replaced even though one tooth feels loose? Thank you Jacqueline

A. Hi Jacqueline
Thanks for your questions, firstly I would recommend that you visit your dentist in order to discuss the reasons for your lose tooth. In respect of the change in the colour of your, this could be due to the nerve dying. If this is the case, it can sometimes lead to pain and discomfort, so again I would encourage you to return to your dentist to have this assessed. If the nerve is dying in your tooth, the dentist may recommend that you have root canal therapy. This would involve removing all the infection from the root canal and then cleaning and filling it. The tooth may then need to be crowned in order to protect it. I hope this helps, but would urge you to contact me again should you need any further assistance.
Kind Regards
