can i straighten and reshape my teeth without braces

Q. hi, all through high school, i had braces for almost 4 years because my teeth were really badly crooked. the looked great when they came off and were perfectly straight. after just a couple of years, they went back to how they used to be. now theyre crooked again. i feel like I am too old for braces now and dont see the point in going through all that again if theyre only going to go back to crooked again. is there any other alternatives in straightening them? and also, any way of re-shaping them as my top front ones seem to be larger than the rest. which over all, my teeth are not great at all. could you reccomend what i could do? your advise and reply would be so helpful. please respond. thank you

A. If you will definately not consider a brace then Veneers may be an option for you. I recommend that you book in for a consultation with a cosmetic dentist to see of this would be a suitable option. Veneers can not only straighten your teeth but can alter the shape, size and colour to create a perfect smile for you.

All the cases seen in my own website portfolio have been acheived using porcelain Veneers.
