I've had vaneers on my six front teeth for the past 7 years. I think they look nice and natural and I've never feel too conscious about them as the dentist put some 'natural touches' on them. However over the past few weeks I have started to notice grey patches on my front two teech (particular on the left front tooth when looking at the photo).
