Can I still have veneers even though I grind my teeth?

Q.
hi i was thinking of getting veneers to my top and bottom teeth i do grind my teeth so i wear a splint at the moment as my teeth are small anyway would getting veneers be a good idea thanks in advance
A.
If you grind your teeth you should choose a cosmetic dentist that knows a lot about the bite and is very experienced in reconstructing worn teeth. Veneers can work but they have to be very carefully done to make sure they last as long as posssible and to avoid your grinding from breaking them prematurely

To put on veneers do you have to file down the original teeth?

Hi, Ive been looking in to cosmetic dentistry for a while now, although have never really knew who to contact for competitive rates as well as great work. I am not too sure what I need but I know what I want.My top teeth are slightly overlapping each other and have become a little discolored; now all I want is dead straight teeth and Im not sure whether a brace is better or to look into veneers?
