Please need some opinions on my permanent veneers
I was really hoping to get some opinions. My new veneers are lovely-I do love the color and feel of them and the shape. What I’m not pleased with are the length of one of the front teeth compared to the one next to it, and the lateral tooth next to that is longer than necessary. It actually gets knocked sometimes when I’m chewing. This tooth is much longer than my temporaries so I am unsure why it’s different than the temporaries were.
I did “sign off” on these the day they were put in last week. I guess I was anxious, overwhelmed and excited and didn’t really fully notice these differences until a day or two later. do I have any case for replacement on at least 2 teeth? What is involved in that? Can at least my lateral be gently polished down so it matches the other side? I spent 18k on these teeth!!
I am going to add a photo of the temporaries so you can see that these permanents are not similar.

Update! My permanents are finally in my mouth!
Update: 5/1. I got my permanent veneers yesterday! At first I was a little uneasy about how they looked and felt. Yesterday they seemed “too white” and not natural looking, also yesterday my gums surrounding were dark-looking.
This morning I’m feeling a lot better about how they look and feel. There are a couple tiny areas where I feel like the gum area has a bit of a space but only if I really critique it.
The two front teeth aren’t even (you can see one is slightly shorter) and the lateral on my left side is longer than the lateral on the right. Again only if I really sit and critique my teeth I see this but it doesn’t bug me *too bad* as I kind of feel that these imperfections add to the natural look maybe?
I’d really love some opinions though!
Also now the color of my bottom teeth do not match my tops. I will need to whiten them at least 2 shades. I’d love some recommendations on teeth whiteners that won’t break the bank (I’ve already spent enough!) and will work fairly fast with minimal pain. Sensitivity scares the geebus out of me!
I will have these temps on for another 5 weeks. I did go and get them adjusted though. My dentist was able to shorten the laterals and round off my front teeth a bit at the bottoms and I like them so much better.

I’d love some opinions. I badly needed work done on my teeth for health reasons and cosmetically. My teeth suffered for decades due to severe dental phobia and very bad choices.
Along with amalgam removal, crown replacements-my dentist suggested 10 front veneers. Because I have gum recession (from clenching, not gum disease!) she suggested that I veneer over the recession.
Today the temporaries were put in and I hate them. My teeth are abnormally long looking and very huge. My children told me not to smile normal. They said to smile a little because they look better than if I smile regular. So heartbreaking!!
I also see it looks so strange by the gum line and I don’t know if this is the glue or what. Maybe when it wears off they will look less long?
Also, I’m not liking the straight across look of the teeth. They are too “perfect”. I feel like I want some variation with tooth length (the teeth on either side of the fronts I’d like shorter than the others) what do you think?
The color here is 01 001. I’m thinking of choose b4 for permanents but unsure. I don’t want them too yellow-y but too white is bad too. Thoughts on this?
I’d love some opinions. Thanks!
