Bonding or porcelain veneers?

I am getting my braces off on the 12th and I was wondering what the better option would be since a few of my teeth are quite worn down from being crooked for so long. I know that in some cases bonding can last a very long time and sometimes it wont. I was very easy on my braces and never had anything break or come loose. I know that veneers might look slightly better but I dont know if that could be covered by insurance or not since it is cosmetic. Here is a picture of picture of my teeth with braces to get an idea of which option would be better. Thanks

Bonding or porcelain veneers?
I think your teeth look lovely just as they are.





Why go through all the trouble of having fixed braces on for years just to veneer them straight away afterwards. You could have done that at the beginning without doing bracework!





What do you mean by bonding?





I think you should leave them just the way they are. Any unnecessary work on your teeth will shorten their lifespan considerably. Plus veneers are quite destructive and they dont last forever!





Best to leave alone and be happy with nice white straight teeth
Reply:Your teeth look great!! Are you sure you need bonding or porcelain veneers. They look fine to me unless I just don't see it in the picture. Talk to your dentist to see if you need to have anything done and what would be the best option for you. Good luck!!
