- HATE Porcelain Laminates: I had 9 porcelain laminates put on my front teeth 3 monthes ago. My teeth are now very sensitive. I can't stand the pain and I cry every single day. I live in pain all the time and I can't bite any hard food like cocumber or apple or biscuit. I used to use my teeth as a tool before and I know it was wrong but there weren't any problem with me. Now two doctors told me that my teeth need endo. I am really thinking that I will make those nine teeth as a crown because I can't stand the pain and I know that they were over prepared. Please help me. ...Visitor from Egypt (answer)
- Severe pain after preperation for veneers: I had my teeth prepared for veneers 2 weeks ago. First my dentist put on temporaries but the pain was so bad that she had to take them off and use a different cement. They are still hurting on and off. I have to take Panadol pain reliever every day. Will this improve after she places the permanent veneers in 3 weeks? I can't take the pain any longer. ...Visitor from Australia (answer)

- Pain: About 5 weeks ago I had 6 veneers placed on my upper teeth. The dentist was excellent and well regarded. The teeth look beautiful. EXCEPT, the day following the final placement of the veeners I woke up to find all my teeth aching and sensitive. My lower jaw was particularly sore. All my teeth were aching badly. About one week later the pain had concentrated on my left side - both upper and lower jaw. At five weeks later, I have to take celebrex, tylenol and alieve around the clock for pain in my jaw and teeth. It is not the veneer teeth that hurt. It is my molars and jaw, upper and lower on left side. What is this? I do not have TMJ, do not grind, clench. Have no history of any problems. ...Visitor from NY (answer)
- Veneer pain: I have invested over $20000 in 16 veneers. 8 on top and 8 on the bottom. Over two years after having my permanent veneers placed I am still in pain. I had my teeth prepared and wore temporaries for 5 weeks. The application of the permenant veneers was difficult and painful. The dentist had lots of trouble getting me numb. Since that time, I have had temporal headaches, joint pain in my jaws, severe aching in my lower teeth and sharp pains shooting through my two front teeth. I have taken so much OTC pain meds, I have gastritis. I still have great sensitivity to hot and cold. Cold is almost unbearable. I have always had a very high pain tolerance, but this is very disturbing. Please help ...Visitor from NC (answer)

- Thick and Discomfort: I have recently placed 4 porcelain veneers on my front teeth and they feel very uncomfortable. It has been 3 weeks now and yet I am not used to them. I feel they are thick and also there are tiny spaces between each. They feel very funny when the air pass through them. Shouldn't all the spaces be closed with veneers? And how long does it take before I get used to them? I also feel pressure on my teeth and I feel discomfort and pain at the end of the day. What's wrong? ...Visitor from CA (answer)
- Sensitivity and Gum Pain: I recently decided to get veneers on my front 6 upper teeth. About 10 days ago I had the first visit, where they ground down my teeth and put on the temporaries. After about 2 days, I noticed both sensitivity and general soreness in my upper teeth and gum region. I could feel the soreness occasionally in my bottom jaw also. The sensitivity has gotten much better, but the nagging soreness isn't going away. I have to take 2 ibuprofen every 10 hours or so just to bear the pain. Is this normal for the pain to last this long? ...Visitor from CA (answer)
- Extreme sensitivity following veneers: I had 20 veneers placed due to a severe tetracycline stain. The procedure altered my smile, although the overall cosmetic effect was pretty decent. However, eight months following placement, I am still experiencing extreme sensitivity to hot and cold, (I cannot swish tap water in my mouth when I brush). In places around my gum line, there are thin margins where my own tooth is exposed. Also, I cannot comfortably bite anything crunchy, (nuts, chips, the corn meal on the bottom of pizza, bacon, etc.) without pain. I am using Sensodyne and a special dental fluoride solution with no luck. What to do? ...Visitor from FL (answer)
