I am 60 and don’t want braces at my age. Would I be able to get veneers?

Q. I am having the nite white treatment at the moment then having dental work done- I have one tooth at the bottom that sticks above the rest-my dentist suggested a brace-but at my age (60) I really am not too keen and would rather spend the money on a veneer- can he not just file a bit from this tooth to make it the same size as the other teeth,
A. It’s not always that simple. You don’t want to remove healthy tooth tissue and have a negative effect on your bite. I would advise you to make an appointment with a Cosmetic Dentist for a consultation.
