I just got my veneers and I feel like they are to long. My dentist said they are the same size as my temporary ones but I feel my temporary ones were shorter. Can I get them shorten and did my dentist did a good job on my veneers?

Answer: Veneers too big the exact size and proportion of your teeth is hard to judge by your photos and without understanding of what you started with it's hard to make a judgement . Often a case like this we see four veneers were placed when a better smile could have been achieved by doing six teeth. The more teeth veneered allows the dentist and ceramist to make a smile look more natural by proper proportion and spacing. They thing I see the most is the teeth are monochromatic (one color) and their shape could of been improved by possibly reshaping or contouring the teeth. But without knowledge of what you started with, what limitations your dentist had. Ultimately, it's hard to truly judge.
