Hello there,A bad smell coming from your veneers may indicate leakage. A void in the veneer margin can harbor odor producing bacteria. Contact your dentist to schedule a complete evaluation. It's always important to look at before/after photos before selecting a dentist. They will give you an idea about what you can expect. Good luck and I hope this helps.

Hi:Normally bad smell comes from bacterial accumulation. You have to check with a dentist to make sure the veneer is completely sealed and/or not over contoured (too bulky at gum line). Barring these two scenarios, rinsing your mouth with a sea salt mouthwash is the best option.Best of luck!
one possibly is leakage at gum level. so its my advice to visit yr cosmetic dentist as soon as possible. otherwise in future black spot will appear there under that veneer .
could be 2 things, or either a space under the veneers and not being sealing, or a gum pocket, and this is making bacteria to stay there, making this odor, to happen.look for a clinical examination, and make it fast.
