Would you be upset if these were yours? I am.
Fixing your teeth is definately not advised by this girl. You are better off allowing nature to take its coarse. Only then following through with major dental work if it's absolutely necessary.
Ugly natural teeth are easily more beautiful than perfect porcelain.

Overall, your teeth look awesome. #8 is shorter than 9. Most people would not notice, but with the $$$ you are spending, I would want them matched!

I know the feeling pretty well. I am still angry of my first dentist. I feel like I was abused...
Anyway, stop feeding the dentists. They look fine! Do something nice to you treat yourself well. Probably you going to accept them.. Don't forget that we have to change them every 10 years maybe less or more.. Veneers can not be redone forever - ha - the thing we haven't been told by our "lovely" dentists.

Honestly you sound like nothing anyone does could please you. That's just my opinion. If you went to multiple people who refunded your money, and went to the lab multiple times, then did you ever think that maaaaaaybe it's not them but you? Maybe you are being too unrealistic? Just a thought.

Seeks she had every right to complain if she was not happy! She paid lots of money for a smile that she was not just nit picking she had legitimate complaints! I am so glad to hear her money was refunded as it should have been and never shared a dentist just put the permanent ones on without asking the patient how she likes them so that was on the dentist! I think your teeth now look beautiful and natural however these are only pictures you're the one who has to live with them you're the one that paid so make sure you get what you want but also know that perfection won't look so natural.

Redone
dkspaceguitarSeptember 3, 2016
December of 2015 my old restorations are removed from a different, more expensive office. $1850 per tooth.
I spent 8 months in temporaries, while 4 different sets were made for me. (I will elobarte more on this with a review of the next office once the details are final.) Take a look for yourself. Even while I tried them in I was unsure about them, obviously for good reason, but the "Professionals" didn't see anything wrong with them, so I went ahead and had them cemented, but I think they should have been sent back...... :(
Over all they are improved. They make little to no clicking noises and my gums do not burn at night anymore. However, looking at them my centrals are two different sizes. I am completly devastated. It's almost like the whole right side are different sizes compared to the three on the left.....Know that dentists do not care and will cement just about anything to get you out of their office and on the the next patient...... While trying them in, they told me to hold the long tooth up and it would be the same size as the other.... big mistake.. And I was blinded by that length thinking the shorter one was the same size...uggghhhh
What do you all think? I wanted my centrals longer than the rest. I feel like if the longer, thicker central is shortened I am back to where I started with all the teeth relatively the same size. Is this something that only exists in my head???
Opinions please.

Can they make the one a bit shorter ? If you do just take it a hair at a time leave it a couple weeks and if you think it needs shorter then go another hair

First of all , you are gorgeous and your smile is too. That being said, I do see what you are saying. , Yes, one central IS bigger-wider than the other. Its not noticeable without looking for it but what the heck is wrong with the dentist when it is his/ her job to do just that. Why would they not notice it? How frustrating for you. I would be upset after already having to go through the first experience and now the imperfection on the redo. Ugh. Good luck on it. I do agree with the previous person suggesting having them slightly correct the size difference a little at a time.

Trajectory
dkspaceguitarMarch 15, 2016
Today I visited the lab and finally after 3 months they have fixed the trajectory back to my original :)
My last restorations and my current temps stick out slightly. You would never know, unless you were me and couldn't annunciate your words like you use to.
The tech at the lab showed me the differences with all the different molds and models.
If your going through this, I'd recommend visiting the lab, more than once, but truely I wouldn't advise this type of dental work to anyone.

Why did you get it if its not something that you would recommend?

Had I known better, I wouldn't have journeyed my self. Hind sight is 20/20. Don't do it!
Never EVER veneer your teeth unless you absolutely have to.
So now I am considering another re-do next year.
I don't think yours look bad at all. But I see what you're saying.
Good luck and don't settle...that's a lot of money to not be happy!
