Can I replace porcelain cap with more effective procedure?

Q. Sir,i am having porcelain cap on one of my fronth tooth. it looks a bit bulged than other tooth, and slight mismatching of colour of the cap is present.doctot had done enamel cutting prior to it, much more than what is required for veneering,,,, can i replace this cap with a more effective procedure..plz suggest sir,can i now do veneering to it..also dont teeth grow after enamel cutting

A. Teeth do not grow after the enamel has been cut. Once a tooth has been preared for a crown the only option in replasing the crown is with another crown.  However the new crown can be made out of different materials to improve the look
