What Are Botched Veneers?
Botched veneers refer to composite or porcelain veneers that have not been applied correctly, leading to a myriad of aesthetic and functional issues. These can range from misalignment and unnatural appearance to discomfort and damage to the natural tooth structure.

The Impact of Botched Veneers on Oral Health and Aesthetics
Botched veneers can significantly affect your oral health, leading to problems such as tooth decay under the veneer, gum inflammation, and even tooth loss in severe cases. Aesthetically, they can cause your smile to look uneven, discoloured, or unnatural. We aim to address these issues head-on, providing top-tier veneer correction services in Cape Town, to give you the confidence to smile brightly once more.
Signs and Symptoms of Failed Veneers
Failed veneers often present noticeable signs that should be addressed. These include:
- Discolouration or Staining: While veneers are known for their resistance to staining, botched veneers may discolour due to poor-quality materials or improper fit.
- Chipping or Cracking: Composite veneers should be durable. However, those that are improperly applied can chip or crack, affecting your smile and oral health.
- Misalignment or Gaps: Ill-fitting veneers can lead to gaps between the veneer and your natural tooth, or cause alignment issues that affect your bite and appearance.
- Sensitivity or Discomfort: If veneers are not bonded correctly, they can cause tooth sensitivity or discomfort, especially when consuming hot or cold foods.
When to Seek Professional Help for Veneer Complications
If you notice any of the above symptoms, it’s crucial to seek professional advice. Early detection and treatment of botched veneers can prevent further oral health issues and ensure your veneers are corrected and look their best. Whether it’s discomfort, aesthetic concerns, or the integrity of the veneer itself, our team in Cape Town is here to provide expert veneer correction services.
