I absolutely love my veneers still! One of them did pop off about 2 months ago while I was flossing. Luckily, I was able to catch it and put in in a ziplock bag until I got back to the dentist and they glued it back on. They doubt the dental floss was the primary culprit; it was probably some tough food that I ate. The good news is that it came off in one piece. They say that will happen from time to time - roughly every 7 years or so. With me, it's happened 3 times since I've had my veneers, but I also have no back teeth so I have to primarily chew on my front and sides. This is probably the real reason why mine come detached more frequently than most.

For anyone wondering how your real teeth will look after they're shaped for veneers, take a look at this. lol Now, take a look at the picture in my update post above and see that I'm right.

Today's veneer fitting and bonding was a little hellish to endure. They had to give me 3 numbing shots to subdue my very sensitive real teeth from the poking and prodding. Then it felt like they took a weed-wacker to my gums as they scraped at them. I was at my appointment for approx 3 hours as they fitted, chiseled and refitted, until they were finally satisfied and I was too war-stricken to care.
I do love the finished result - aside from my left incisor being slightly lower than my right - but they'll tweek that at my biting appointment tomorrow.
The only thing that worries me now is the weird sensation of movement I'm feeling in them when I bite down. I seems like I can also use my tongue to push them back and forth, and I can both feel and hear a clicking as I do. God, I hope they don't have to remove them and glue them on again! That's my worst fear right now.

Do you have an implant? Why does the tooth next to your front look soooo white in the prep photos?

Sorry for such a late response. I'm not really sure why it looks whiter than the others. Perhaps the lighting.

Omg! I just love love love your new smile, WOW! My teeth are pretty healthy but I've often thought about getting just the top done.....especially if I could have a beautiful smile like you have now. Congratulations!!

Can you update as far as the sensation of movement? Do they still push back and forth? Do you still hear clicking?
July 4, 2018
No I can't. Although, I do still occasionally get the sensation that they're moving.

Your final teeth look absolutely stunning! Congratulations enjoy your new life
