Can you feel your own teeth under veneers? I can feel at the back the veneer then my own tooth. Is this how it should be?

Question

Kourosh Maddahi, DDS · Answer

Hi:It is normal to feel the junction between your tooth and the veneer since the veneer does not cover the entire back surface of the tooth.  This is one of the reasons why veneer preparation is much more conservative than a crown.Best,Dr. Maddahi

Vicki Borowski, DDS · Answer

What you are feeling is very normal. Sometime you can feel the junction between the veneer and tooth structure. If this bothers you your dentist may be able to poslih this surface and make it smoother.
