Or they will they look much different comparing to the rest upper teeth? I heard that most of the time people get 6 or 8 veneers at once, but I am on a budget. Would be direct bonding a good alternative in a long run? I don't want to pay twice if I get bonding that may lasts few years and then to pay to replace the bonding with veneers. Any advice?

Answer: Two Veneers may work to close your space
The placement of two Porcelain Veneers will most definitely work if the pre-existing space between your two front teeth is not too large. If the space is too large and you try to close it with just two Veneers it will make your Smile look unnatural. If there is a question about proportion and space a diagnostic wax up is the method to allow us to evaluate how many Veneers would be best or needed for your specific case. This trial or "mock" wax up will give you a realistic preview as to what you can expect from your final Porcelain Veneers. The question in your case is basically how much preexisting space exists between your two Centrals. Good Luck!

Answer: 2 Veneers to close a space
When considering closing a space between the two front teeth you should discuss all options. The options are 1. Orthodontics - this would close the space by moving your natural teeth together. 2. Cosmetic Bonding - this procedure involves adding composite resin, that is tooth colored, to the sides of the teeth to close the space. 3. Porcelain veneers - in most cases the some tooth structure is removed to allow the porcelain veneer to restore the structure and is fabricated to close the space. Everyone's situation and budget is different. So select a cosmetic dentist that is trained in all these procedures and discuss the pros and cons of each for your case. In my office we offer a free cosmetic consultation and develop the appropriate plan for each patient.
