Veneers or dental bonding? (Photos)

Question

I have been unhappy with my teeth for a while. I am an avid coffee drinker and will get zoom whitening prior to my process (whichever it may be.) I have crowded bottom teeth that will be fixed with invisalign (just in case you noticed) and I wish to have a bigger smile. The spacing between my teeth is my top priority.

Yes you could do either veneers or bondings to improve your smile.. However you have to figure what the cost you want to handle before you undertake this journey..What hits me right away is a slight "gummy" smile which can be diminished with braces as your best choice as to help with leveling your gums...Expansion of your arch will also help get that "bigger" smile...Then come veneers if you want them after treatment described above...Time and cost are big factors in achieving your goals. Thanks.

Hello,
I would also consult your cosmetic dentist about crown lengthening (to level the gum line) along with porcelain veneers. You could also achieve the same with traditional wire braces to expand the arch and level the gums and then Veneers should you still not be happy with the shape of your teeth.
