I have gotten porcelain veneers about a year ago. I know that the dentist did do some type of lasering on my gums around my 2 front teeth and swelling was normal, but I question if it is normal that I am still swollen after all the time? I find that my 2 front teeth are already a lot longer than my other teeth. Help!

Answer: Swollen Gums It is not normal to have swollen gums from the lasering that was done two years ago. No, that is not normal. However swollen gums can be a product of other issues including the fit of the veneers, how much they extend up into the gums, the type of material used, your home care, just to name a few. Further since your picture is really hard to decipher, I definitely can tell you that a visit to a dentist is your only option right now. They will need to see your gums up close and personal, assessing all the parameters I mentioned above and more. In the end you should be able to enjoy your veneers with out any swelling of your gums.
