Can you replace veneers while having lingual braces on?

I'm distressed over my current situation right now. Because of an accident -- which I'm not going to go into --, I had to have four veneers put in (on all my incisors). Now, it's only been two months with these veneers and I need braces. ... I NEED braces. My bite is terrible. My upper and lower teeth are not occlusive and I have an overbite, which is only pronounced by my upper front teeth jutting out a bit. :cry:





I'm planning on replacing my veneers (because they don't look too good) but I can't do it right now because of financial reasons. The only thing I can do at the moment is fix my bite but seeing as how that'll take a few years, I'm positive that I'll be able to get my veneers replaced within a year. Would I be able to replace my veneers with the lingual braces on?





I know I should ask my dentists (ortho and cosmetic dentist) but it's already after-hours. I just came back from the orthodontist and I was so dismal at the office I couldn't think straight. I'm anxious!

Can you replace veneers while having lingual braces on?
I would wait to everything is inline. I dont know much about lingual braces since there are so many new kinds of ortho, but im sure your dentist and ortohodontist would work together with you for this. Plus i always recd before anyone puts crowns or veneers on front teeth to consider bleaching first since you cant change the color of the porcelain after it is cemented on. Especially in front teeth, cosmectically speaking.
