I agree, it does look like your teeth are too small for your face. The laterals are mainly causing this problem. The health of your teeth and bite are first priority. In general, before you do any restorative treatment (veneers or bonding) you should get an orthodontic consult and treatment if needed. After orthodontic treatment, I suspect your laterals will still look set in and short, and you may be a good cantidate for a type of veneer that requires no drilling.My best to you!

These are veneers that are bonded directly to the teeth without preparation. Orthodontics is required first to position the teeth appropriately .
