Can i get porcelain veneers?

Instead of me having 2 lateral incisors i instead have 2 canine teeth where the incisors are supposed to be. And where my canines are supposed to be there are 2 baby canine teeth. i can't get rid of them cause i was born with these teeth. Could porcelain veneers be covered on these four teeth to make them look natural? Please i need to know.


Thanx!

absolutlty! Im a registered dental assistant, and we do these all the time. When you say there are 2 baby canines, do you mean bicuspids? which are pre-molars? they're usually behind the canines. You can definatly veneer the front four teeth, but it looks so much better to veneer the 6 front teeth. Make sure your dentist makes the "baby canines" look like actual canines. (pointy or sharp enough to cut meats when you eat. good luck!
Reply:It could be an option but the only way to know for sure is to visit a Dentist who does veneers. (Crowns would be another option.) Try to find a dentist with good references who's willing to show you pictures of his work. Many offer free consultations as well.
Reply:Yes, probably could but this would only make them slightly bigger. Crown would be the better choice, but this is spending a lot of money on teeth that at some point you will lose. Most people go for a while and then the body realizes these teeth are not supposed to be there and they loosen up and fall out. It would be better to consider removing these teeth and doing implants. This is the best choice. Second best choice would be remove these teeth and do a bridge, but implants would be probably about the same price, better looking, and just like real teeth. You just have to be sure to keep them clean, you healthy, no smoking and all is good.
