I just had my temporary veneers fitted, all on my upper teeth. I’n very happy with the shape and I’ve agreed with my dentist on the shade of the final veneers to match my existing teeth, but the temporaries are just too white compared to me lower teeth. Is is possible to tone down the whiteness of the temporaries?

Of coarse it is by remaking them , ask your dentist to remake them but expect to be charged , temps are just that and seen as a dressing with an acceptable experience , if they are made as mock ups to exactly mimic what is to come in shape and colour then maybe it should be included in the treatment. I am sure your dentist will help you .

Dear John
Temporary materials will often discolour or stain after a few days exposed to food and drink which will tone down the bright appearance
You could have the work replaced with a material that is a better match but this additional procedure would have an expense financially and biologically which may not be justified for the sake of a few weeks whilst the definitive restorations are fabricated
