Awful veneers. Huge regret.

After 7 years of research, I finally picked a “top celebrity dentist” and ceramist to get veneers on my 2 peg laterals. Up until then, I had bonding on them, which was becoming discolored and chipping. These two dentist promised me amazing results. What I got was very round and long veneers that didn’t match the rest of my smile. When I complained, they agreed to fix my 2 veneers and replace them with new ones. BIGGET REGRET EVER!!! The new veneers they put on are awful, and I cry daily about them.

The entire time they were bickering at each other and I could tell how half-assed the entire process was. The ceramist kept saying he had to leave to mail a package, and the dentist kept saying they look fine as is. Mind you, I spent $4,000 for 2 veneers!! And what I was getting was 2 dentist complaining about staying late to make my teeth look decent. Every time time I brought up an issue, they would brush it off. Like the fact that the veneer wasn’t translucent, or that my real tooth was exposed, or that they were too long. Or how they look nothing like the multiple photoshopped reference photos I sent them. The worst part of this entire process was that as the dentist was putting in my temporaries, he freaking CHIPPED MY FRONT TOOTH! When I brought it up, he tried to deny it. All I kept hearing from them was how great they are and how they have the best technology and celebrity clients.

As soon as my new veneers were put in, I got in my car and balled my eyes out. It took me 2 weeks to leave the house. It’s been a few months now and I’m sooooo insecure about these giant chicklet looking veneers. I rarely smile, and don’t like when I’m in the sunlight because you can see how fake they are. I can’t believe I spent $4,000 for 2 awful veneer that are irritating my gumline AND I have a permanently chipped front tooth.

Had I known, I could’ve just gone to Tijuana and gotten the same terrible veneers for 1/4th of the price. I’m devastated. And I have peg laterals which are already small, but they shaved them down so much, I worry that if I get new veneers, the laterals will be too small to work with and I’ll need implants. Worst decision ever. It’s sad that all those years of researching the best dentist meant getting the worst case scenario results :’( I’d like to get them shortened but I’m scared of going back to that dentist. My new dentist doesn’t feel confident to shave them down, but agrees that they were poorly done.

Of my awful horse looking veneers. Just the 2 peg laterals were done. Plus my front tooth was chipped in the corner.
