I am not happy with the outcome of my cosmetic dental treatment
Q. I have recently completed a course of cosmetic dental treatment which included a porcelain veneer on one of my front teeth. I don’t feel at all happy with it as it is rough to the touch and not the same colour as the other tooth. It appears almost stained!I am concerned to speak to my dentist as a complaint seems an insult to his work, however, the treatment was expensive and I am not happy with the result. Your advice would be appreciated as I don’t believe a pocelain veneer should be rough. Thank you for any help you are able to offer.
A.
Thanks for getting touch, I would recommend that you do return to your dentist and explain your concerns. I would much prefer my patients to be happy with their treatment and be able to recommend my work. It may be that there is a little excess cement left from when the veneer was fitted. However in respect of the colour, the veneer should be enhancing your smile without standing out, and so the dentist may have to consider remaking the veneer in a shade which better matches your natural teeth shade. I hope this helps.
Many thanks

Hi,
I have just had veneers fitted, they look completely different from my temporary veneers which I have for a month whilst waiting for veneers to be made.
I had the temporary veneers adjusted slightly then I was 100% happy with them so they went ahead and made my veneers. Now I am not happy at all. Would it be possible if I went back to the dentist they would replace them for me?
Thanks very much.
Marie
