Can I repair interproximal reduction with veneers? (Photo)

April 7, 2019
Asked By:Nick NYC in New York, NY

I’m a 37 years old male congenitally missing my upper lateral incisors. My orthodontist stripped enamel from both sides of my first premolars and the front of my seconds premolars to avoid surgery. They now look and feel awful and there is still not enough space for implants and my upper jaw doesn’t fit correctly over the lower. It looks like I’ll need surgery still. Can these premolars be repaired back to their original shape with wrap around porcelain veneer or would I need full crowns?
