I’m Not Happy With My New Implants As They Don’t Match Up Properly. What Can I Do About These?

Q.

I have been going through the process of preparing my mouth for two lateral incisor implants for over 3 years. Finally yesterday, my “teeth” were ready to be placed. I was so excited, because I have had holes in my mouth for almost 4 years now. When my dentist handed me the mirror, I was completely disappointed. The teeth are too small, and they do not sit on my gums. Which makes it look like I am still wearing the retainer I had to fill in the spaces, which was way too small. The colouring isn’t right either. I am very very disappointed and angry, because I’ve waited so long. I am 19, and have hated my teeth my whole life, and now after all that work, I still hate them. What can I do about these?

I’m unhappy with my crown, you can see the metal at the gum line! What should I do?

Q.

Hi Doctor Moore. I recently had a crown fitted by my dentist. Recently as in less than two months ago.The crown was fitted to a tooth which had a filling due to decay. I was still subject to some pain in the tooth with the filling and was also not happy about the filling as it was extremely noticeable. The new crown which has been fitted is a completely different shade to my other teeth, sits proud of them making them look crooked and is also showing metal at the gumline.It is the second tooth from centre on the top row. It has also been filed down quite substantially under the crown. What would you advise? It’s making me feel very self-conscious. Thank you for your time, I eagerly await your response!
