I got fitted with veneers but they are sore and painful

Monday, September 14th, 2009
Q.
I wanted a pretty smile so I had my upper 4 front teeth fitted with veneers a little over a year now. The veneers were way to long and bulky. I looked like Buggs Bunny and talked with a hisp. The dentist and I have yelled at each other. He said he will not replace them but keeps grinding them down. I have had pain and throbbing ever since, especially at night (I do wear a night guard because I clench my teeth). The pain at night keeps me awake. I cannot lay on my back or my side without feeling like my front teeth are being pushed around. I cannot get releif. The teeth look OK now but the throbbing at night won’t go away. What do you suggest? I really depressed about this.

Can veneers help me hide the gaps between teeth?

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009
Q.
I am 41 and have had fixed braces for nearly 2 years after having had 4 teeth removed. My lower jaw is fine but I have been told that I will be left with gaps on my upper jaw behind my canines due to the size and shape of my teeth. Is this normal? It has been suggested that I now have 4 veneers to hide the gaps, is there any other alternative? Will the veneers stop my teeth from moving?

The veneers would be a quick w… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

can u suggest an alternative for night guard?

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009
Q.
Hi,I have recently been told by my dentist that the damage to my teeth is caused by grinding during the night.This is evident as i have very bad wear on my two front teeth.They are a lot shorter than my other top teeth and have formed an arch shape.It has got to the stage where people are noticing and i am reluctant to smile.I have been given a night guard to wear but i feel my teeth need to be treated with caps or veneers as well as the further protection that the guard will give,what do you recommend?

Can i know the benefits and problems of veneers and crowns?

Are the veneers secure enough once they are fitted?

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009
Q.
Hi Dr Caplan, I hope this doesnt seem like a daft question but Im really worried and would appreciate your opinion. Basically I have had veneers fitted recently and I’m not very happy with the outcome aesthtically, as they are quite uneven and dont sit straight as in the temps. Besides this however, the main problem is that they dont feel very secure, particularly the very front ones. I am aware of a clicking sensation after ive cleaned my teeth or had something to eat, which feels like the veneers are slightly moving in and out of place. It is a very strange sensation and every time it happens I am very anxious in case they fall out! I have been back to the dentist and he has checked them and said everything is fine.. however I go on holiday soon for 2 weeks and Im terrified of any of these veneers falling out when Im out of the country. Is there any way to make them feel more secure or is it a case of just living with it? Many thanks for your time
