What options do I have to correct overjet after veneers? (photos)

It's not uncommon for patients to face unexpected outcomes after dental procedures like veneer placement, leading to issues such as an overjet. While your dentist might not see it as a significant problem, the referral to an orthodontist and then to an oral maxillofacial surgeon indicates that your case might require specialized intervention. The surgeon's suggestion of jaw surgery as the only solution sounds drastic, especially when insurance won't cover it. However, it's important to remember that each case is unique, and sometimes, complex dental issues do require extensive treatments. Seeking a second or even third opinion from other dental specialists is a prudent step to ensure you're getting the appropriate advice and to explore all possible less invasive and more affordable options.

It's my advice to upload a lateral cephalogram x-ray, so I can guide you better. You can ask to your orthodontist for this x-ray.

Veneers are great but sometimes they cannot make up for large skeletal deficiencies. A consult with an oral surgeon is a good idea.
