Discomfort & poss tooth shifting after I got my Veneers at Dr. Lerch's office.

Okay, it's been several weeks since I got my ceramic veneers at Dr. Lerch's office.
I have been having a lot of discomfort with my two front teeth were it feels like there is something stuck in between my teeth there and it gets really annoying.

Also, since my gums have settled down, I've noticed a little black shadow right at the gum line in between my two upper front teeth. Am I being picky, or does it look a little like a piece of black pepper stuck in my tooth?

Lastly, and most scarey, it feels like my teeth are shifting and when I took a picture from below of my bite, I noticed it looks a lot different, considering it's only been weeks.
I would really like to get some feed back and opinions from others.
Any insight from professionals in the dental field would be most appreciated.

New Permanent Ceramic Veneers Cemented Today

I have a follow up visit in one week, were the Doctor will make any minor tweeks that may be needed.
I don't love the color in these photos, but they looked brighter in the office.
I thought my temps were a little too white, but I loved how they looked in a recent photoshoot.
They don't look bad to me, but I can tell which ones are the ceramic veneers, and which are not.
I was going for a "natural" look, but perhaps these are too yellow?
Thoughts, advice?

Dr. Nancy Lerch @ the Center For Esthetic Dentistry 1st Try in Tomorrow. Veneers

Woow. Very nervous. I've been having some gum issues, the parameter where the gum meets the tooth suddenly became very raw while I was brushing, even though I was brushing normally (at the gum line) with the soft tooth brush I was given.
Food debris and odor have been an issue, so I have been spending more time than usual brushing, however, gently. I don't know if brushing too much caused this. My gums are normally very healthy. I hope my gum line returns to normal. Anyway.
I have made a list of things I will say if I am not 110% happy with the "try-ins", so as to not get pressured by the 3 woman, however nice, who work there. They have already mentioned to me about how "the gums will (magically) grow over any gaps there may be in the veneers over time".
But, I will not agree to anything permanent that doesn't look great at the time of the try in. Period.
Fingers and toes crossed. Deep breath....
