Can I Get Invisalign when I Have Porcelain Veneers?

I have had a problem for so long with the appearance of my teeth, so much so it has affected my life since I was aware I had bad teeth. Back in high school I couldn't take it any longer, and instead of getting braces (I didn't have the money, or wanting to wait that long to get results) I got 2 Veneers for my 2 front teeth that had a gap.

I still have crowding on my lower and a "fang" on my upper row that's a bit turned to the side which I want to correct, along with an overbite. I have looked into invisalign and am wondering if it would be able to work with my upper teeth that have the 2 veneers in the front... Would this destroy them? Would this make their life span less? and would they even be able to use invisalign at all? I would be very interested in knowing what my options are...

Absolutely!!

Yes, there are really no contraindactions to having Invisalign done AFTER having porcelain veneers. (It's actually ideal the other way around but hey :-)) I agree with a previous post though- provided that the veneers are not defective and properly bonded to the tooth- then you should be fine.

Should not be a problem!

Treatment with Invisalign with patients who have veneers should not be a problem as long as the veneers are healthy and are properly bonded to the teeth. Invisalign should not harm your veneers in any way or decrease their life span.
