I am trying to find someone who know the secret to darkening veneers. Mine to far too bright and I wish I had my old yellows back! I am willing to go to drastic measures, such as sanding/roughening the surface and staining. I can't be the first person that needs this fixed ( and can not afford to have a dentist redo)

Answer: #Veneers too bright #DrSoftTouch Hello there,Unfortunately, there is no way to change the shade of your veneers once they are permanently bonded. Changing the shade would involve your dentist removing your veneers and having new veneers made. It may take some time for you to get used to your new veneers, especially since you are used to having yellow teeth. I would recommend that you talk to your dentist about your concerns. If you do decide to have them redone, be sure that you okay the shade before your veneers are permanently bonded. Good luck and I hope this helps.
