I've read 1984, Brave New World, and Fahrenheit 451. Any other great books like these where a society is held up as a utopia until you look closer at it and the thin veneer falls away and its true nature as a dystopia is revealed?

Kallocain is about a doctor working for a totalitarian government to develop a truth serum. It was written before 1984.
Fahrenheit 451 was trash.
I'm pretty sure Ayn Rand's novels classify as dystopian. I know Anthem does (its very short too).
this perfect day by ira levin. my fav dystopia.
