Am I a suitable candidate for porcelain veneers with protruding teeth and an overbite? (Photos)

Question

I’ve been self conscious about my teeth for as long as I can remember. My front teeth are smaller and as a result I’ve got a gap. I don’t really don’t want to have to get braces given the length of time it takes. From what ive seen online porcelain veneers can work wonders, I just hope this is an appropriate option for me. Any help is much appreciated!

there is significant amount of space in front two teeth and front right tooth is out of arch. good amount of tooth reduction is needed for veneers and also front teeth will look big and bulky if you will go for veneers. best option in yr case is veneers followed by invisalign. invisalign will help in space closure and tooth alignment , and later veneers for aesthetic improvement [if needed].

Your right front tooth sticks out quite a bit. We will need to reduce the tooth “prep” quite a bit to have anything to look natural. You’ll have three options to enhance and correct your smile without braces. Crowns, porcelain veneers or composite veneers. Consult with an experienced cosmetic dentist for the best result.

Hi Most likely yes that is an option. My recommendation is find a Cosmetic Dentist and have a Smile Consultation. Maybe even get 2-3 consultations find who you are a fit with and go from there.

Hello,If it is what you want, you can consult with specialists.The idea is that you have 20 teeth with porcelain veneers (80% porcelain and 20% composite).In a day you would be ready for a new smile.
