Are 4 Lumineers (2) Veneers enough? (Photos)

Question

Hey. After a long time being uncomfortable with my teeth gap, i'v decided to go see a dentist to see what could improve my smile. The dentist suggest putting on 4 or 6 Lumineers (2) Veneers on my top jaw to remove to gaps. I would like to ask if the treatment is the best for me, and if so how long does these veneers can last? (I'm 20 years old btw) Thank you! :)

Hi, thanks for sending your question. Your smile can be enhancing by optimizing the appearance with a minimum of 4 veneers. The more the you'd like to enhance your smile, then more veneers can be done to enhance as well. All the best.

Hi:4-6 veneers seem to be a good option.  More can be added in the future if needed.  The replacement of veneers depend on three factors:
1.  If you get gum recession where the roots of the tooth show while smiling, you may want to get longer veneers to cover the roots.
2.  Chipping or fracturing the veneer
3.  Getting decay where the veneer meets the tooth.
The actual porcelain veneer material does not actually breakdown over time.Best,Dr. Maddahi
