My teeth was treated with veneer after accidental crash which broke my front teeth. During regular check up, my dentist(not the same dentist who performed veneer) told me that I may need to get crown with post since the teeth has been partially removed during veneer installation.

Please help me.based on attached pic taken before veneer.
