I got 8 veneers on my top teeth, and they were perfect. Then I went in for my follow up, & my dentist shortened one too much. He was doing some light polishing and then grinded that tooth down. He told me was doing this, but I was in the chair, mouth open and I trusted him. I didn’t have a problem with my bite in that area.
