Hi

It is very difficult to say what treatment option is the best for you without carrying out an examination.

the options t o improve the appearance of your teeth are:
-whitening
-orthodontics (fixed braces, invisible braces or lingual orthodontics)
- combination of orthodontics and veneers
- veneers

Each type of treament has its pros and cons. I would read more on the above treatments on the cosmetic guide homepage, there are many articles with a lot of useful information.

My personal views are to be as conservative as possible when improving the appearance of teeth, so my first choice is orthodontics if the teeth are not in a favourable position and then whitening. If the teeth are in a favourable position then veneers can be considered, but you have to realise that this is a lifelong commitment and the veneers will require replacing in the future. This is just a brief outline. Each case is different.

If cost is a concern, you can always consider finance. But please remember that quality comes with a price.

Hope this helps

Kind Regards

Raha
