Can I Have Bonding Done on my Teeth Without Grinding Any of Them Down?

March 14, 2010
Asked By:latigo in San Diego, CA

My teeth are a little short and a little jagged and overcrowded. Can't I just have bonding done on all of them to make them a little longer and make them appear less jagged? Is it possible that none of the teeth would have to be ground down at all? It just seems like that would be much less invasive and expensive that getting porcelain veneers on all of them. Is it possible it could affect my bite in an unnatural way?
