I have one tooth in the front row pushed back as you can see in the pictures and was wondering what my options to fix it are. I am in my mid-twenties and would like to avoid traditional braces if possible. Would porcelain veneers or invisalign or any orthodontic treatment fix this? Are any of the methods recommended or are braces my only option? If yes, do I need full braces?

"Communicating" exactly what you want for your smile is important, but also not easy sometimes! Have your dentist get to exactly something you are happy with in the temporaries in terms of size and shape. Feminine teeth have rounded edges and contours. It's very important to get this right in...
Hi:My suggestion is to wait a week for the gums to heal and reevalute the gum and the smile. At that time if you are still dissatisfied with your veneers you should voice your concern to your dentist. There can be adjustment made to veneers after cementation as well.Best,Dr. Maddahi
It is difficult to evaluate your case with no photos. Veneers can be done on upper and lower teeth, but if they are done early in life they will probably need to be replaced at some point over your lifetime.
