I got non prep porcelain veneers 3 months ago. My lip is quite thick and they were really bulky in my mouth. I can't make a full smile anymore and when I try my lip hurts and swell. Anyway my cosmetic dentist wants me to wait for the swelling to go down before he does anything, but it's hard to have the swelling go down with the teeth pushing my lips. I'm debating having the veneers removed, just the front 6. Is that a complicated procedure? Does it cause damage to my teeth?

Answer: Remove veneers I am not sure why your lip is swelled up! However, if you have non prep veneers, removing them is very easy, however you have to make sure that an experienced cosmetic dentist remove it , not to damage your teeth.

Answer: No Prep Porcelain Veneer Concerns The bulky appearance you are unhappy with is a common problem with No-Prep Veneers and that is largely due to case selection. No-Prep Veneers can produce beautiful results if performed on the right patient. Since no tooth structure is altered to make room for porcelain, No-Prep Veneers are best suited for patients with spaces between their natural teeth and good arch alignment. When teeth are crowded or out of alignment adding porcelain to the facing of the tooth will only make it more prominent. If your dentist did not alter your natural teeth the veneers can be carefully removed to expose your natural tooth. You will again be left with the cosmetic concern that initially led you to have the veneers placed. I recommend you have a consultation with a experienced cosmetic dentist to discuss options like removal or converting to traditional veneers.
