What Do You Suggest For Veneers On My Upper Front Teeth?

I have veneers on my upper front teeth. There was a crack in the back of one. The dentist drilled out the back a little and bonded the back of the tooth. The dentist said it would be sensitive for a couple days. It's been months now and anytime I eat something hard or hot it will swell up and get sore again. There is a oval red circle that looks like it has a hole in the middle directly behind my two front teeth. I got the dentist to check it but they said just put a calming gel on it and eat on the side of my mouth. Should I be concerned that it's been months now and it never goes away or just have to be careful of the area for all time? The bump was not there before the procedure.

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have undergone veneering in tooth now you have swelling of gingivae in that area , dont worry prosthesis has causing irritation in your gums now ,

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day

Wait for sometime apply ointment Gum paint twice daily

If wont get relief then consult your dentist and go for removal of prosthesis and go for new prosthesis

Hope this will help you.
