Bonding Vs. Lumineers After Braces

I would have your orthodontist leave small spaces around your latera incisors so that you can have bonding or veneers when your treatment is completed.  This will allow your cosmetic dentist to give you the correct size laterals.  Good luck.

Sometimes one lateral is smaller than another, so spaces around the smaller tooth should NOT be closed.  This will allow the restorative dentist to make the smaller tooth the same size as the non-peg lateral.

This requires strong communication between the restorative dentist and the orthodontist, as many orthodontists simply try to close spaces.  Once treatment is complete, wearing a retainer for a short time to allow teeth to "settle" is a good idea, and then bonding or a lumineer/porcelain veneer can be placed.

If you are still not happy with your peg laterals it's best that your Orthodontic treatment would allow space around the laterals so the small teeth can be made wider through bonding or Porcelain Veneers. If the space is completely closed the only change can be made is the color and the length.
