Will 4 veneers look fine for me as a dentists recommended 2 bondings and 2 veneers? (Photos)

Question

Hello,I just got my braces off and I am looking into getting 4 veneers as I chipped and broke three of my front teeth. One has a crown and the other two are fillings. I only want 4 because I like how my other teeth look and don't want to do anything to the others since there is no problems with them and also since I'm 21. Would 4 veneers look fine with me? My cosmetic dentist I was going to also said two bondings and 2 veneers, what would be better? ( image included)

4 veneers would look great as you would correct the discolored right front tooth as well as create symmetry by lengthening the gum on lateral tooth.  Your smile however shows more than just 4 teeth, so the color/characteristics of the 4 veneers will have to match into your existing teeth further posteriorly.  In the short term you may be happy, but later on you may wish you had done more.

For the record, the BEST option would be 8 veneers.  I think if you do 2 veneers and 2 veneers, you will soon have "buyers remorse" and wish you had done the 4.  The tooth that has a crown will always be a crown, so a veneer on THAT tooth is not an option.
