Face Forward, a nonprofit out of CA that helps crime victims win their life & confidence back, blessed me by taking on my case. While in CA, I had a dental appointment. The dentist said, “you will be getting 10 upper and 8 lower veneers. You will have a beautiful smile again.” A week later, his receptionist calls FF Director to inform her that he changed his mind but would be willing to give us a “discounted rate”, resulting in the procedure costing $36,000. Read Part 2 for the end…. The dentist who did this has a multi-million dollar practice in the heart of Beverly Hills. What hurt was getting SO EXCITED for something that is literally life altering, and then that person basically saying, “Nevermind, you don’t deserve it.” So, I guess my question is this… How does a single mom in the midst of divorce afford veneers? ANY suggestions help. If I could just have the simple confidence to smile, it would change my entire life.

I would recommend 4 or 8. If you already don't show the back teeth than doing 6 veneers will make that worse. I have never done 6 veneer for that reason. You may want more fullness in the back and that would get way better results by doing 8-10 veneers.
