It's difficult to see your veneers in the photo you provided, but they do look a bit large. The best thing to do is return to the dentist who placed your veneers to discuss your concerns. I always recommend okaying your restorations before having them permanently bonded. That way, any necessary changes easily be made by sending them back to the lab. I hope this helps. Follow me for more questions and answers.
I do your concern with the veneers. The real problem is your vert narrow maxilla that leaves you a fout tooth smile with the canines and bicuspids almost invisible. This gives the illusion that they are very small in comparison. Because they are deep in the mouth they reflect very little light.The picture shows a black buccal corridor on your right side (left side of picture) and you allready have pronounced nasolabial grooves due to insuffuceunt hard tissue support of lips and cheeks.Ideally, you would have had expansion orthodontics before 8 years of age. As an adult the DNA Appliance (worn 12-14 hours day) can orthopedically grow you a full wide smile and allow better tooth positioning. Ideally, you should have 8-10 veneers for a full smile OR reduction of the teeth prior to doing veneers. You are a perfect example of why diagnostic wax-up and/or intra-oral composite mck-ups are part of cosmetic dentistry.Do a google search of "full wide smile vs buccal corridors" under images and you will find many pictures showing this principle.

From the photo, they do appear a little large. Unfortunately the only thing that can be done is to remake them. They cannot be properly adjusted enough in order to make you happy. I would speak to your dentist and voice your displeasure.
Anything less than all teeth that show when smiling (8-10 teeth usually) will have issues as you describe. In your case, even simply replacing the 4 treated (while likely an improvement) will not be enough. An experienced dentist trained in cosmetics can help guide you to the best treatment for you, whether veneering 10 teeth or a combination of orthodontics and veneers.
Hi:The main reasons why veneers have to be replaced are:1. Gum recession either due to gum disease or age. If your gums show when you smile, you most likely have to replace the veneers when the roots of the teeth start to show.2. Cavity. You still can get a cavity on where the veneer mee...
The triangle you see between your two front teeth may or may not fill with gum tissue. I would recommend speaking with the dentist who placed your veneers about your concerns since he/she knows the specifics of your case. Good luck and I hope this helps. Click save on the save button below my ...
Yes its an option, and you will have a more nice smile, and you will love their results, the teeth needs to be grinded down , but after they will look more nice and even.at least 10 need to be done , so you can correct the way they look.
