Hi im 19 years old and have previously had orthodontic treatment

Q. Hi, im 19 years old, and have previously had orthodontic treatment. However, I have a couple of problems. Firstly, my front two teeth are very big compared to my other teeth and my mouth. Is there any way to fix this? Also, my smile arch is too narrow, so when I smile, you can hardly see the molars. Being only 19, I’m not able to pay the astronomical prices that I’ve seen from many cosmetic practices. Would you be able to advise me? Thank you

A. The only way to change the shape and proportions of your teeth is with cosmetic dentistry such as porcelain veneers.

Hello, I would like to enquire about getting a veneer on a tooth that has had root canal treatment. The tooth is now shorter than the rest of my teethand slightly darker in colour so I was hoping that a veneer could potentially resolve this and bring the tooth in line with the others. Also, I wouldlike to get some more details on invisalign and whether this would need tobe complete before a veneer or if it could be done at a later stage if I got the veneer first. I would be grateful if someone could give me my options if possible. Thanks
