My teeth are very unattractive so would invisible braces or veneers be an options?

Thursday, August 13th, 2009
Q.
Hi, i have hated my teeth all my life and they have always been a problem. I have had two braces (first a retainer then a ‘train track’ brace) my teeth were intially straight whenthe brace first came off but the two they had brought forward had a lot lower gums than the rest which looked very unattractive, i was told that in time the gums would move themselves up. well 5 years later im nearly back to square one the gums have not moved and my teeth have moved back. i would like to know what i can do to gain a nice smile i saw veneers would not be the solution but i feel i deserve a nice ‘hollywood’ looking smile after all ive gone through. would an invisible brace then veneers be an option?
