I decided to get my healthy tooth veneered after getting a cap for another one. Bit mistake. What can be done to correct this?

Q.
I just had my crown replaced on my front tooth, with a procelin cap,and I decided to get the other healthy tooth next to it veneered. The veneered tooth is thick and bulky and there is a super thick spot in the back of the tooth as well as a slight ledge. My cap is slightly shorter than the veneer, not at all what my teeth looked like. I HATE THEM!!!!! How labor intensive would it be to correct.
A.
Thank you for your enquiry.

To correct the problem would most likely involve replacing the crown and veneer completely. Which means taking the crown and veneer off, having new impressions taken and fitting new porcelain work.

However, with any dental treatment there are slight risks to however, if you book in for a full cosmetic consultation, we can go over all of the options, risks and benefits.

Generally speaking, the provisional crown and veneer should be a ‘test drive’ of the final result and any aesthetic concerns can be addressed at this time.
