The Gap Between My Veneers Is Getting Bigger And I Sometimes Get A Horrible Smell. Is This Something I Need To Worry About?

Q.

Hello,

I had 6 porcelain veneers placed on to my top 6 middle teeth in 2008. I had this done as I had a small gap which I wanted to close.

Fast forward to 2014 and my gap is bigger than it ever was. And my biggest problem is I am worried that the veneers are causing me to have bad breath. I can sometimes get a horrible smell coming from the top of the veneers near my gums.

I floss and brush my teeth twice a day and use mouthwash.

My experience of having these veneers fixed was horrendous and has left me with an extreme fear of dentists.

I don’t know what to do about this. I do not have the finances to have this procedure done again. Please can you help?

My Veneers Have A Gap Between Them And The Gum Line, Can I Get Free Treatment?

Q.

Hi I have veneers on my top front 4 teeth, my gums are receding as I’m now 44, the veneers are showing a gap at the top, I’m a single parent with no savings & am unable to work as I am a carer for my elderly mum
When I was young I had several traumatic experiences at the dentist,so I didn’t go as often as I should & never looked after them properly – all that considering they’re not that bad – what I would like to do is whiten my teeth & have my veneers replaced, I never have photos taken as I hate my teeth – I have asked my dentist if I can have the veneers replaced & I’ll pay for the whitening, but apparently it’s not possible on the NHS as its cosmetic – is they’re anywhere I could be used to be practiced on, without paying? Or are there any other solutions? I am desperate – luckily my 2 teenage children have beautiful teeth & no fear of the dentist! Please help.
