I had my front tooth veneered with an eMax Lumineer. Contouring suggestions?

unnamed (1)unnamed (2)unnamedI had #9 veneered with an eMax Lumineer, and it’s slightly longer and more comprehensive in appearance. Can I contour this to make it look less bulky? If so, in which way do you suggest?

Answer:

Emax lumineers, once bonded on, it is tough to contour and especially polish to the glazed surface.
​I believe that your two front teeth have neck and gum symmetry problems!
​It must have been addressed before you got the lumineer.

​As far as adjusting the height, you can have an adjustment done, which will be much easier than contouring the neck of your teeth. Emax is a much stronger and more rigid material than regular porcelain to cut, adjust and polish!
​If you are happy with the looks of your veneer and lumineers, with just length adjustment, that can be done. However, if the width bothers you, you must redo your veneer or lumineer!
