In August I got cosmetic bonding on two teeth that got chipped in a bike accident. As soon as the dentist finished and she let me look at my teeth, a) I noticed that the bonding was much whiter than my own teeth and b) the bonding was very lumpy. I complained right away but she told me it needed time to settle and to call for an appointment if it didn’t settle in two weeks. I called for an appointment and was scheduled for a month later! So when I went back to the office my dentist said that she had to take off the bonding and start over. Sounded like a good idea to me. So she got the bad bonding off and re-did it. Now the shape of my two teeth is completely different from how they looked originally and they look like they don’t belong with my other teeth. The color is better but not quite right. I actually had a good friend ask me what happened to my teeth. I cannot go back to this dentist. I am cutting my losses, money and all. I am done. How many times can a dentist chisel off bad bonding without messing up my own teeth? What should I do now? – Tia

Tia – Take the time to find an experienced cosmetic dentist in your area. If you are able, find an experienced cosmetic dentist who is also accredited by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.

The dentist will examine your dental bonding and let you know your options. It is likely that the bad bonding can be removed, your teeth can properly be prepared for the bonding, and new bonding can be applied. An experienced cosmetic dentist will have plenty of composite available to match your natural teeth. He or she also has the skill to sculpt the bonding so that it looks completely natural.

Don’t settle for anything less than an experienced cosmetic dentist.

I got porcelain veneers 3 weeks ago and they are killing me. Eight veneers and my teeth are hurting really bad. I have been taking ibuprofen every day since I got them. I know it’s no good for my stomach. Yes, I have called my dentist several times and visited the office complaining about the pain. He keeps telling me to be patient and the pain will gradually get better. It has not improved at all. Can I get them taken off and just go back to my natural teeth? – Jasmine

Jasmine – Make an appointment with a different dentist. If possible, find an accredited cosmetic dentist to examine your porcelain veneers and teeth.

It is normal to experience some sensitivity in your teeth after you receive porcelain veneers. The enamel of your natural teeth is removed in preparation for the veneers, so sensitivity is expected. But persistent pain that is not diminishing is not common.

Your teeth and veneers need to be examined to determine the cause of the problem and how to alleviate your pain. Once you receive veneers, you can’t return to having your natural teeth exposed. Your teeth have been lightly shaved to support veneers, so some type of cosmetic dentistry will be needed to cover and protect your natural teeth—either veneers or crowns.

Without examining your teeth, we won’t guess as to what is causing your pain, so make an appointment promptly.
