Redoing veneers, a good idea? Risky?

nikica.g
Hi all, I have 8 porcelain veneers on my top teeth. I am unhappy with my never ending bite issues (tried it all, adjustments, mouth guard) and shade (current is B2). I've heard that you can only redo them so many times because each time more enamel must be removed. This is worrying me. What does this mean for me if I choose to redo them? That the bond won't be strong? That they will fall off? Is this now a risk? Finally, what do you think of my current veneers? Are they well done? Thanks
