I have large gaps and I have an overbite - Smile Makeover - Dominican Republic, DO
ORIGINAL POST
I have been in search of a good cosmetic dentist...
$3,980
I have been in search of a good cosmetic dentist in either Mexico or the Dominican Republic as having the smile makeover done in my country is too expensive, for me at this time. I have large gaps and I have an overbite.
I decided on going to the Dominican Republic because I will be getting plastic surgery done there. I am not doing my smile makeover and BBL at the same time but it is cheaper there in the DR and I can use that time to meet with plastic surgeons and do a thorough investigation of them. Another reviewer spoke of Dr. Alonso and after viewing some reviews on him and communicating with him via emails I believe my decision has been made. I have not seen any reviews on him on realself and I am hoping that this would help ladies, or men here.
In all I will be having six (6) porcelain veneers and six (6) porcelain crowns done.

Need braces
I have been advised that I need braces prior to getting veneers. I really don't want abnormally huge teeth and I need to correct my overbite. So I'll be getting invisalign before heading to the DR for braces.

Are you going to share your Invisalign story with us? :D

As I have shared with you guys I need braces (whether traditional braces or invisalign) before I do my veneers. I am hoping I only need a year of that treatment before my veneers are done but I will update you guys along the way...

Good to see you again! It looks from your pictures like you have a slight open bite, and possibly a bimaxillary protrusion. Are they recommending regular braces or Invisalign? And do you know to whom you'll go for the orthodontics? Have they explained how far they are planning to go with treatment before you go to veneers?
