Four porcelain veneers

[Lucy1]

Hi

My front four teeth are crowded and two of them stick out and I am so conscious of these front teeth when I look at my photos.

I have thought about braces but I am 28 years old and would be embarrassed to wear braces to work especially because I speak to a lot of clients face to face and think braces would not be acceptable for me.

I would like to know if four porcelain veneers could improve my smile by making my teeth more straight. What is the procedure for having porcelain veneers done?

Thank you for your question.

Porcelain veneers can be tried but if two of your teeth are protruded, then these will need to be shaved back for porcelain veneers for better alignment.

As an alternative you could try Invisalign which could align your teeth without tooth shaving. As Invisalign aligners are clear, they are almost invisible.
