Im 16 and how does it cost for veneers because I should get it done for free

Q. Dear Dr. Caplan Im 16 years old girl. My front tooth is chipped and its very sensitive. I went to see my dentist and he put some paste (infill) on this tooth. Now I had it done about 5 times now and he said that next time he will do a veneer. How much does it cost because i should get it done for free because Im under 18 and full-time education ? Thank you for Your answer

A. At your age  I would recommend a white fillings still.  The tooth may still grow and a veneer may not look great in a few years.

hi,im 16 and have a stage 3 underbite, i also have very small teeth. when i smile you can barely see my teeth and this gives the impression i have a large jaw. i get teased and called ‘big chin’ or ‘back to front jaw’ and i am very paranoid about the matter.
i attend a private dentist and he said the only other suggestion apart from surgery is veneers to make the teeth appear bigger and give me a normal smile. is this possible? and where would be the best place for me to go and have it done if so?
please reply, many thanks, Talya
