If one or more of the tooth that is a part of the bridge is not one of the tooth you want to change color on as part of your smile makeover, you don’t need to replace the bridge. However, when you are doing veneers on that many teeth, it’s always good to see if your bite needs to be improved to protect the new veneers or to improve your TMJ position or your airway health. If so, this would be a time to consider restoring the back teeth as well to create more optimal teeth, jaw & airway relationship, since they are all connected and change in one area will affect the other areas. Other option is to go ahead and do the veneers without restoring the back teeth and then make sure you wear a protective night guard that protects or improves the teeth, jaw & airway.
