My old crown gave me a blackline can i replace them with veneers?

Q. Hi, i am considering having veneers to the the upper front jaw. i have spoken to my dentost and he said that i would only need the first four done. I am really nervous about getting it doen but it’s something that i really want done. i hate my smile and am very concious when i smile. I had a bad experience with my last dentist as a teenager and as a result of poor comunication i have been left with a crown on my front tooth. it stands out to the other teeth and there is a black line along my gum where you can see the join. Is there something i can do about this and also if i had veneers would they all develop this line in time? Please help?

A. This crown could be replaced with an all porcelain crown to eliminate the black line. The veneers are just made of porcelain so you shouldn’t have the same problem as the existing crown.
