My teeth are worn down from grinding them when I was younger, am I a candidate for porcelain/zirconium veneers? (Photos)

Asked By:Valeriemalone in Denmark

I have worn down teeth from grinding when I was younger, and for the last 10 years I have slept with a mouth guard. But unfortunately I also have a bite that makes Bruxism, in danish it's called a deep/low bite. My dentist want me to get braces and then dental bonding on the lower/upper 6 teeth. My problem is, I don't like the fact that they stain, and braces are very expensive. So will porcelain/zirconium veneers be an option for both power and lower teeth, so they will be aligned? Thanks :)
