I can understand that you are not happy with your veneers, but if your veneers looked better, I don't think that you'd want to go from veneers to Invisalign.  I recommend going to a great cosmetic dentist that can give you the results that you desire.  Find a dentist with before and after photos that show results that you want.  Veneers are what I do, so you can "Follow" me on Real Self to ask me more questions about them if you need to.Sarah Thompson, DMD

The veneers are covering the tooth and although you say there is minimal preparation done on them there is likely some enamel that has previously been removed. Invisalign will help straighten the teeth but you will still need a covering where the veneers are. If you are not happy with the veneers then I would first straighten your teeth with Invisalign and then have the veneers redone.

Norman Huefner, DDS · Answer

You can certainly have Invisalign with our without the veneers, however if the two teeth have been prepared at all you would need to have some covering, either composite bonded veneers or porcelain veneers.If you do not have enough room in your mouth for your wisdom teeth or they are impacted it is generally advised to have them removed regardless of whether your have orthodontics or not.
