Hello.. I got 20 porcelain veneers done along with 4 of my molars (2 on each bottom) silver fillings replaced with white. This was done out of the country so i cannot go back. ive done 3 bite corrections but the issue has not resolved. My family dentist put me on antibiotics even though I dont have any signs of infections but she said because i have continuous discomfort. It feels extremely sore and achey especially when i eat. My 4 bottom teeth are also wiggling when i touch it?? please help
Hi I have recently had a veneer placed on my front tooth. The tooth now feels almost as if there is a build up of pressure within it, it is not painful but just very uncomfortable. Also when I press down on the gum above the tooth it is quite sore. I have seen my dentist twice since and he has checked the vitality of the tooth and it is still alive. He has also checked my bite and it is also fine. He believes the tooth is just trying to settle. I just wanted to get a second opinion.
I had 20 porcelain veneers placed about a month ago. I went to a reputable cosmetic dentist and Im not thrilled with them. I feel the top front 4 are too translucent for my liking. The shade was supposedly OM3 but it looks dull and yellow in certain lighting. Im nervous about getting them redone (I cannot afford to do all 20 but maybe I can redo the top front 6) and I still have bad sensitivity/discomfort. Can I get those 6 redone slightly more opaque and lighter or will it look too odd?
Hello, I got 4 veneers on my upper front teeth early on August this year. From the moment I got the temporaries I was in excruciating pain, after getting my permanent veneers I continued to be in pain. I got two adjustments, it did get better, but the pain didnt totally go away. After almost 4 months I am still in pain, I cant bite and floss without pain and discomfort. According to my doctor the x-rays looked fine, also I dont have nerve damage. What do I need to do next? Thank you
Two days ago, I had 8 porcelain veneers and 2 crowns placed on my upper teeth. Since then, I have had jaw pain and headaches. I find myself clenching my teeth in my sleep, as well as discomfort when chewing food. I had an overbite before veneers but it has never caused the symptoms mentioned. I went back to the dentist and he made some adjustments but the symptoms persist. He seems to think my bite is fine. Do I just need time to adjust to my veneers or is there a serious issue with my bite?
I had braces and my clear retainers got burned so i opted for permanent retainers. Now some of my teeth have moved , my bite is correct but i have pain and discomfort when i talk, my lower and upper jaw coordination has become weird , i had braces for a year and i removed them 6 months ago. My question is, can i remove my permanent retainer , wait for my teeth to relapse then do veneers? some doctors told me that my teeth might take a new position that is even worse, is that true? i'm 30 .
A few days after I had them placed I was in a lot of pain, my dentis put me on antibiotics in case of infection but later ruled out infection and said I was grinding my teeth. I now wear mouth guards for top and bottom teeth and its not very comtortable I have a lot of sensitivity and also a constant ache in my gums. i can still feel some of the origianal tooth on the back side of the veneer. Any advice would be appreciated! I just paid $18,000 Im so terrified that it was a huge mistake
Got 2 front veneers a month ago. Temporaries did not feel pain or discomfort. Left veneer felt sensitive when i flossed it or compressed it from the day one. After a week both teeth started hurting. Adjusted bite, it helped. But the left veneer is still bothering a lot. It is not even pain, it is discomfort and pressure in it. I sleep ok and feel ok in the morning, but the day goes on and discomfort gets worse. Niteguard did not make a difference. x-ray did not show nerve problem. What else?
For the past few days I have been having upper gum discomfortin the area just above the veneer. Veneers (upper front 4) were placed a month ago by a very competent dentist). The other three teeth do not have any gum sensitivity around them. The tissue does not seem inflamed, just has this burning sensation that is constantly present. I am aware that sensitivity is normal within few weeks after but not sure why only one tooth is affected. I take very good care of my teeth and gums
