What makes a veneer-ready tooth sensitive and painful?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I had my teeth prepped for veneers a year ago. The veneers my dentist used to cover my entire tooth. Veneers cover the front of your tooth and not the whole tooth.
After that, I visited my dentist one to two times a month. I had my bottom eight teeth replaced because they were turning orange. I have never been in so much pain in my life. I have terrible hot and cold sensitivity, which, I have read, should go away within a few weeks. But, as I said, he has been working on my teeth for a year now, and still, there are problems.
Kindly help.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I read your query and understand your concern.
If the veneer, as you say, covers the whole tooth, then it might be a ceramic crown and not a veneer.
In addition, if there is severe pain, the tooth might have been reduced beyond what was needed for veneers, and the nerves might be exposed. In such cases, root canal treatment is needed.
I hope that you get your answer.
Please let me know if you need any help.
Thank you.
