All of my teeth have fillings, including my front teeth. Even though I can afford porcelain veneers I chose dental bonding to fix my front teeth because I feel it looks a bit less fake. However, my dentist just got a set of Componeers from Coltène/Whaledent and he wants me to have instead the Componeers. Would bonding or componeer veneers be the right option if a). I desire my teeth to look as natural as possible and b). I want to avoid further tooth reduction.

You definitely have the right idea, I would suggest to whiten your teeth first in order to match the new composite bonding shade. It's important however to wait a minimum of 15 days after whitening because the material will otherwise disrupt the chemistry and strength of the bond...
Many different options and cost... 1. enamelplasty adjusting incisal edges no local usually not expensive but teeth maybe slightly sensitive. 2.Orthodontics to move teeth. 3. Crowns or veneers to reshape teeth fees may run from $75.00- $1850.00 per tooth good luck and your teeth don't look that...
The small gaps you have near the biting edge of your teeth are normal. You will have a beautiful, natural smile when the braces come off. Perhaps you should consider having the edge of your front teeth contoured by a cosmetic dentist to give symmetry and flow to your new smile....
