Dental Veneers After
Why my gum bleeds very often after getting veneers done
I got a few dental veneers done 6 months ago. Even though i floss and brush right after meals, my gum still bleed very often. My cleaning and check up is not due until next month. I am so worried because i never had any gum problems before getting veneers done. Will i loose my teeth later on if my gum keep bleeding? Will dental veneers cause tooth loss?
If enough tooth hasn’t been removed for the veneer, when the veneer is cemented in place, the tooth now is over contoured and the emergence profile of the tooth is not correct. What this means is that an unhealthy shape is given to the tooth, so that food and bacteria are kept at the gumline instead of moved away from it. This will irritate your gums.
It could also be that some cement has been left under the gums and is being a local irritant causing chronic gignvitis (the bleeding).
