Have my dental veneers moved in my mouth?

Hi,





I could do with abit of advice.





3 months ago, I had 4 veneers and a crown done on my upper teeth which I was happy with at the time. I went back a couple of weeks later as I thought they had changed colour.


My dentist advised me, that doesn't happen with poreclain veneers and put it down to me being paranoid.





I purchased some supersmile which was great and found they looked brighter than they did before.





In the last couple of weeks I've noticed that 2 of the 4 veneers (the front 2) look darker than the other 2. I don't understand why that would be, if they were all made together and are supposedly of the same colour shade, in the same light they should look the same.





I've also noticed in the last couple of weeks, my bite has changed slightly.


I dont know whether I've been grinding them while I've been sleeping but I can see the


difference when I smile. They were straight when I had them first done, now my front 2 teeth are not aligned and also another has started to lean outwards on the side.





I have booked myself to go back to the Dentist next week as I would like another veneer


doing on another tooth, however I'm going to have to raise my concerns regarding the ones


she's already done.





Have the veneers shifted or has my teeth?


What can the dentist do to fix it? Can they get the veneers off to realign them or


would I have to spend another £2K to get them done again, which I won't be happy about doing!





I know I'm going to see her next week but a heads up on some of the questions I've got


may prepare me.





thanks

The only thing I can think of with your veneers changing colour is that some of them are thicker than the others, therefore more colour from your orginal tooth is showing through the thinner ones and maker it appear darker. As your dentist said, veneers will not change colour, so it would be your real tooth. As for them moving, thats kinda big deal because they obviously shouldn't do that! You shouldn't have to pay for them again though, as your dentist should reattach them or suggest another plan depending on the situation. Just be firm with what you want and don't back down or be afraid. You paid good money for these teeth and are entitled to get your moneys worth! Good Luck!!!
