Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in New Jersey

Dental Drama

I had porcelain veneers put on my top 8 teeth when I was 18, 6 yrs. ago. I was told these veneers would last for at least the next 10 years, if not longer. Since then, all but 1 has fallen off, multiple times, causing much discomfort, embarrassment, and financial strain. I have been to several dentists since, each telling me something else that they did not agree with my original dentist on (veneers on the back teeth should not have been done, I was too young, veneers misshapen, etc.)

Is there anything I can do about this? I have been told I need to have them all redone, but I cannot afford the $8,000 to do so. My first dentist made veneers sound like a dream come true, but they have been nothing but a nightmare.

Re: Dental Drama

Piv or porcelain infused veneers sometimes don't last as long as they should. most of the time it has nothing to do w/ malpractice. Based on my experience you do not have a case.
