Can a stain be removed from a composite resin veneer without damaging the tooth and enamel underneath? (Photo)

September 5, 2017
Asked By:Anonymous1495 in Texas, TX

I got composite resin veneers over 3 months ago, within the first 2 weeks I had gotten a tiny black stain the size of a tiny dot on my veneer. I didn't think much of it since it was tiny and thought with vigorous brushing it might go away. However not only has it not gone away but now I have another black stain above it and a tiny pin size hole next to it. Can these be fixed without tooth & enamel damage or loss? Are they a concern? How is it done? Can it be fixed without changing the veneer?
