Hello, I just had dental bonding done and am not satisfied with the results. I feel they look too big and don't match my bottom teeth well. I was reassured by my cosmetic dentist that I would be happy with the results when he showed me the mould but I feel very depressed about how they turned out. There was minimal filing and I have an appointment in two weeks time to do touch ups. What are my options? Will I be stuck with these big teeth forever or can it be fixed at all? I feel very regretful.

Answer: Unsatisfied With Bonding
It is good your dentist scheduled a follow up so you can discuss your concerns with him. Possibly some of the bulk could be reduced. If there was little or no tooth reduction done to your natural teeth, there is no way for there not to be some increase in bulk after the bonding is placed. But if nothing was removed the good news is everything is reversible so your not stuck with teeth you feel are too big forever.

Answer: Resin veneers to big?
They can always be changed the options are consider full crowns, or porcelain veneers. Remember the more your dentist reduces your natural teeth the more normal the size and shape of the finished restorations will look normal All patients request that we touch their teeth as little as possible but in the end they want them to look natural in most cases it won't happen... good luck
