Just help people understand what's going on...

So I am posting more pictures to help everyone kind of understand what my issue are as far as my comfort and my bite as well as some more befor pictures I have found.
Anyway I don't feel like my crowns need more adjusting I feel like they need some rebuilding if that makes since if you look at my first set of temps which where a little more comfortable compared to my ones have now. I just got them redone at a cosmetic dentist and not happy with the comfort of my current temps so if anyone can tell me more information thatd be nice! I also feel like I have an overjet with these new ones as well.
Thanks !

just screw it.

This whole cosmetic dentistry thing sucks.

Worse decision of my life ever, and I'm tired of trying to fight to be happy with this, it's a little to late for that at this point, I feel as though my oral health has dropped pretty drastically just over a short time.

I went to see an orthodontist yesterday that was close to my house, and basically the only thing he could do was offer me braces or invislign to move my bottom teeth down, which i simply can't afford, and it could take six months to a year before they could move.

on top of the adjustments to bottom teeth, they have been worn down as well pretty bad, so my bottom teeth went from healthy and fine, to very worn and short. Adjustments only made the wear process faster.

My right side (the side I am having issues with) is a little off position; (see picture two). During my first set my crowns, I had one front tooth that was thicker on the right side, was that to fix that ?

Anyway, I've given up hope and just gonna get my permantes and move on with my life, being sadder than I was with my teeth before, granted they look good, but still uncomfortable for me, and very unnatural feeling, which i would assume is from my bottom teeth wear which the damage has been done, none the less I'm still in the temps, so my last hope is the perms will be better, I seriously doubt it though. So the fact of the matter is it just is what it is, my teeth where something I just wasn't meant to be happy with.

It's about to be November i have spent so long worrying about this everyday, things i've missed out on all over teeth just to look good.

If it wasn't for the shorting and wear on my bottom teeth, I might have been able to be happier about it...

of course this is my fault for being talked into something like this so I guess I have to live with the consequences of it.

I just walk around at school looking at the other students looking at there teeth and how they still have there natural teeth and there only worries are college, what mine should be but here I am worried about f'ing teeth. So just screw it, I'm just going to get my permeates and NEVER go to the dentist again, ever.

I wish my issues where just cosmetic instead of being bite issues, guess I got the short end of the stick.

Everytime I look in the mirror its just a constant reminder of the hell I been threw for nice teeth, and was it worth it not one bit, how short my bottom teeth are now is ridiculous, and are so worn so they fit into the back of my top teeth like a puzzle piece.

So im gonna let them know I'm ready for the permeates and just get this whole thing over with and not ever go back to the dentist. I attached my photos my orotho gave me, I explained to my new dentist that my bite doesn't feel right still but he just blames it on the grinding, even though I wear my night guard so. so my last hope is the merman

Well...

Just giving an update I wanted to wait at least a week to let everybody know how everything is going.

Well so far not so good, my bite is not "corrected" as much as I thought it would be...I think they look great better than what I had before...but I must say im a little disappointed as far as comfortablitly goes..honestly it feels almost the same just a little different and a little bit more stable, I go in this Thursday to talk about what I do and don't like about the temps, so we will see how's this goes.

But what im really upset and pissed about the most is the fact that my bottom teeth have been ground down to almost nothing and look uglier than they did before now I hate the way my bottom teeth look and there is nothing I can do about it at all! I can get crowns replaced but the bottom teeth can't be brought back the are sooo much shorter now like significantly shorter than before and I don't understand for the life of my why just like why dentist would do that.
I started my depression meds, but i am behind on school and behind on everything on life right now I don't do anything but worry about my teeth, especially the bottom ones because there is nothing I can do to bring that back at all!

so at this point I feel as though it's not something I am going to be. happy with just somthing I have to deal with, I would've left my teeth alone if i knew what I knew now and at least I wouldve been comfortable having a nice smile is worthless if your not happy, I'm going to explain what I do and don't like about my crowns but honestly I don't know if he is gonna try to help me anyway. I literally give up on trying to be happy with this it just something im gonna have to deal with and be on depression meds for the rest of my life more than likely. I posted pictures of my teeth before and now and I hate them i went from hating my top teeth to hating the bottoms and can't do crap about it!
I probally would've been over this by now if my bottom teeth hadn't be messed with but here I am with a new worthless smile when I'm still sad, Almost 5months of my life gone over teeth. So looking like I'm screwed so far and just have to live with it I'll never be the same again which is fine and after I go back for my temp discussion im hoping that we can work somthing out, but I doubt it I'm all out of hope and tired of the dentist after all this is said and done I am never ever gonna go back to the dentist, for the rest of my life. cosmetically I'm happy physical im not and I rather be happy physical than cosmetically, cause I don't even want to smile anymore so all this I've been threw was for absolutly nothing.

so I went to being a normal 23 year old to a 23 year old with a messed up bite and more teeth problems than ever before and grounded down bottom teeth to that I can't get back.
so I get to spend my holidays sad
