Dentists of the OT, Assemble WARNING: Not safe for non-dentists

Posted on 4/28/25 at 7:46 am
I recently had a bridge and veneer done and am going back to the dentist tomorrow for the fourth time of having to get them adjusted. Originally the right (left in the pictures) crown and veneer seemed way thicker in the back then the bridged crown and other crown on the left (right in the pictures). After grinding down a considerable amount, the margin on the one crown is left with a sharp and jagged edge that I can get my finger nail under. Besides being uncomfortable, my concern is this a bad fit and should the bridge be redone by the lab, or should I let him to continue to polish it down and hope that I'm not back in 2 years getting the same thing done for another $5k? Your dental expertise would be appreciated.
Before being ground down. Left side is noticeably thicker and was hitting my bottom teeth when trying to chew.

If that's an open margin it will need to be fixed as it can lead to decay. Not a dentist, just a baw opinion.

Just ask your Dentist is the margins are secured. Nicely explain that it feels sharp and awkward and that you may seek a second opinion. This will keep them honest. Try to be tactful even though you paid.
Btw your gums look healthy.

I hope that’s just the temporary. That looks terrible. I’m not a dentist.

Just go ahead and post your social security number. Now that we have your dental records, we can frame you for our crimes.

find a dentist like my wife that obsesses over margins. or a better lab. or both.
honestly it's hard to tell what's going on in these pics and I've seen my share.
also sounds like he/she didn't check your bite after the adjustment. sit upright in the chair to check with the marking paper.

So you went to the less expensive guy, huh?
Ask for lab contact, etc and start enquiry as to the fit.
Im no dentist, but I can absolutely say there shouldn't be an uncomfortable Ridgeline like that at the bottom
