My teeth have some serious staining that cannot be corrected by bleaching, so I want get veneers to make them whiter. Ideally I would like to go to a BL1 or BL2 shade. I have visited few doctors: some recommend veneers on top teeth only, others have said that if I want a BL shade on the top, I have to do the lower ones also, and now I'm not sure what to think? When I smile you can only see the top teeth or sometimes the very top of the bottom teeth.
