I just got 6 veneers today. I was happy with the shade of the temps, they matched the rest of my teeth perfectly, but the permanent veneers seem way whiter, they make my lower teeth look darker... I do not like the color difference and don't believe I can get the lower ones as white as the upper ones by bleaching them. I also think that the upper teeth look un-naturally white. Will they fade a little bit or should I take my dentist on his offer to redo them if I'm really unhappy with the shade?

You have a beautiful smile and beautiful teeth. You do not need veneers! You are looking at a tremendous dental expense just to make your smile a little less gummy and Veneers will not help. My suggestion to you is to try something that is non invasive like Botox which will relax...
If I understand you correctly you have two retained primary teeth where adult lateral teeth should be. If this is the case you should probably consider implants to replace these teeth. It is best if you wait until you have completed any growth before placing implants. Opinion...
Based on what you have said, it sounds as if there is possibly some adhesive stuck between your last veneer and the adjacent tooth. The cracking sound isn't a good thing so it is important to get in with your dentist ASAP to make sure that there is nothing wrong with the veneer.
