I am a midline maxillary diastema patient. Can I do composite or ceramic veneer without frenectomy? Not a fan of braces (Photo)

Hello there,Composite veneers are not really a permanent solution. If you are looking for a solution that will last you decades, I would recommend getting porcelain veneers. Consult with an experienced cosmetic dentist to determine your options. Be sure to look at before and after photos when choosing your dentist. This will give you a pretty accurate idea of how your teeth will look. I've attached a link to a before and after photo of a patient of mine, who's case was very similar to yours.  Good luck and I hope this info helps you.

yes, Porcelain Veneers are great options.  Composite Veneers are not great option as composite changes color after few years and is not as strong as porcelain.. However if you decided to do the porcelain veneers, make sure you do at least 6 to correct space evenly . If not you will have 2 large front teeth.  Smile 

frenectomy is not for closing the gap but to prevent further opening of space or to prevent closed [ by braces] spaces to reopen. so frenectomy will not close spaces, u have to under go for space closure procedure. now come to point - in your case porcelain veneer is good option . its my advice to go for 6 or 8 veneers. in case of only front two veneers it will look big and bulky.
