Hi, I just got some veneers on six of my upper teeth, i feel like they're way too big for my mouth and it just feels weird and bulky and heavy, i cant eat properly. Are they supposed to feel like my old natural teeth? cause if they are, then i do not want to feel this way forever, is there any way i can get them off?

Answer: Bulky veneers You didn't mention how long ago you got the veneers done, but you may still be adapting to a little more fullness in your lip. You didn't post a before picture so it's difficult for me to judge thickness. Another part of the problem may be that you only did 6 veneers. I normally encourage patients not to stop on the front 6 teeth because it often does give the sense of these teeth being large and the ones behind the veneers look like they are too small. The best answer is to return to the dentist who did the veneers and discuss how he can fix the problem. If you have concerns you may also want to get a second opinion from another dentist. Leaving the veneers off isn't the answer, veneers can be made to feel very natural. Sorry that you have had a disappointing experience.

Answer: Veneers Veneers should feel comfortable and look great as well as function well. You didn't give the reason you had the veneers done. If they were done to close gaps between the teeth or make small teeth larger, than they may feel bulky and weird to you for a while.If it was to change the color and correct minor irregularities, then yes, they should feel natural to you. You can always get a second opinion or evaluation, but I would approach your dentist first , explain what your concerns are, and see what can be done including removing them and having them redone.
