Did I need crowns instead of veneers? (photos)

Question

Had braces to correct an overbite, my teeth are pointing inwards at the bottom, slanted to one side and one side the teeth are higher on the other lower. Venners were promised to fix it but the dr just superposed them instead of doing any other work. Can gum countering raise the teeth on one side to make it look even with face? Can it also be done at the bottom to lower the teeth (they cannot be raised on the lower part due to lack of space) Can the midline be shifted? Were crowns a beter choic

Matt Annese, DMD · Answer

Midline shift is not possible without orthodontics/ surgery but most people down notice a midline thats off unless it is not perpendicular to the pupils. the issue i see is the size/ shape and contour of the teeth...the laterals are way too bid and bulky and are more dominant that the canines, tooth 8 is wider than 9, and if you have crowns in the posteior addressing the cant is easy with crowns and veneers. everything looks very monoplane too...
