Are my crowns too big? (Photos)

September 7, 2018
Asked By:Shanikat in Minneapolis, MN

Recently I had crowns put on my front teeth. I said several times that they look too big and bulky. The Dentist told me to give them time and they should adjust... this is hard for me because my twin sister had the same 6 teeth done and hers look amazing! I also think they sit out way too much giving me a huge over bite!

Will insurance (healthfirst) cover crowns for two front teeth or should I just get veneers on the 6 front top teeth? (Photos)
Patric Cohen, DDS, FAGD says:

Insurance may or may not cover crowns here. You are a very good candidate for veneers. You might be able to do a combination of both.

Help, unhappy with dental crowns. What should I ask for? Should I go somewhere else? (Photo)
Andy Shieh, DMD says:

I am glad to hear your are meeting your dentist that did these crowns. Give him a chance to make it right. Lab should be able to make it right. Share with your dentist on what you want then he will convey that message to the lab. You don’t need to tell the lab anything, just tell your dentist.
