16 days post crown lengthening surgery
$4,100
Seems like my gums are mostly healed, other than the tissue between my 2 front teeth to which is still healing a little bit.

Update: switched to invisalign
I was originally planning for veneers but after going through the process of getting wax ups I wasn't convinced that I would be satisfied with the outcome. I'm glad I went through the process however even though it was a waste of $500 for the wax ups because having the crown lengthening done in preparation for veneers opened the door to the idea of Invisalign. I wish I had done all this when I was a kid but my parents weren't very attentive and considered braces on the vain side. I'm going in for my scan on Monday and should be getting my first set of Invisalign trays around the first of the year. It's also nice that since my insurance is paying 2,000 this is only costing me 2,100 instead of 10k for the veneers. This is a gift to myself and to my daughter, I want her to have a confident mom who laughs and smiles.

How long does this need to heal for?
I hope you prepare yourself for the veneer part... I hate mine even after a year..

I'd go with the Invisalign and completely skip the veneers! Don't chop up your teeth! Your smile is looking great. Invisalign them to perfection.

I'm older then you're and have approximately the same gap between the front teeth, I find it nice and sexy, my dentist offered me to close it with the veneers but I really like it and I wouldn't do it; your own teeth are better then veneers and they don't look bad at all.

I had bonding done which chipped, putting this whole dentistry thing in motion but if you look it's still on one of my front teeth making the gap look smaller than it is. I don't mind a small gap, I told the orthodontist doing my Invisalign that I might leave a small gap :) I don't know if I think it's sexy but I have a 9 month old daughter who looks like she will have the gap so I kind of want to keep it.

Your baby girl is a definate reflection of you. Make her feel already, naturally beautiful like her momma :)
Please don't obsess about your teeth. You wouldn't want that for your baby either. Be happy and love like there is no tomorrow.

You're very welcome! I really think that your teeth don't look bad, but if you feel that you need improvement go for it. Good luck!
