Can veneers fix my shifted teeth? (photo)

Hi,There
are 2 ways to restore your case:

The
first option would be a restorative option and a way of making your teeth more
functional. According to your bite, yes, you have a cross bite, posterior, you
have a class II on your lower right, so the best way of restoring this would be
with braces, so that way you can even correct the cross bite, and make your
teeth to be matching on a perfect way; this solution can be done even with your
bridge, you just need to remove it and you can have temporaries while you have
the orthodontic treatment. Where you have no tooth, you would not notice
it, it would be attached to a bracket or glued to the braces, so you would not
have a problem and you would not notice it, that way you will have a 1 year
treatment, and you will correct on a more perfect way your bite.

The
other option is if you do not want to have braces, or wait too long then you
would need to grind your teeth and perform veneers, crowns, you can change
shape, size and color. You would improve a lot the way they look, both
options are good, and there is no problem to perform them.

Veneering all those teeth would be an aggressive quick fix.You have a cross bite and a highly positioned canine that would benefit from ortho.  After all your teeth are repositioned to ideal, i would recommend an implant for your missing tooth or a bridge and limit porcelain work to the front four teeth....nothing is permanent.  Take good care of your dental work and natural teeth and it may last your lifetime.

Many dentists (who told you that you couldn't get orthodontics with a fixed bridge) are wrong! Although most of my patients opt to get veneers instead of orthodontics (and in your case probably a new bridge), you should certainly speak with orthodontists about this instead of your general dentists who don't do orthodontic treatment.Invisalign would be one type of orthodontics that could certainly be done with you having a fixed bridge. Also, orthodontic brackets can be added onto porcelain crowns and bridges, meaning you could have traditional braces as well.My advice, speak with a couple orthodontists in your area IN ADDITION to a couple of experienced cosmetic dentists. However, do your research, make sure you see a cosmetic dentist who has had much extensive training and experience in cosmetic dentistry! As many patients sadly find out, all cosmetic dentists are not the same.
