Cheaper option to porceilin veneers?

hi guys. i live in australia. i absolutely hate my teeth, to a point where if i am out clubbing i dont like to smile, if i am talking to someone i tend to look down a lot or i get annoyed if people look at my mouth not my eyes when i am talking to them and i never smile with my teeth in photos... i am a happy person, but people ask me all the time "are u alright u seem sad/mad/upset?" my excuse is "oh i was just thinking". i am not rich (wish i was!) but i earn alright money, live at home still etc. so i can save.... is there a cheaper option to porceilin veeners? when i actually open my mouth and u see the row of all my top and bottom teeth they are straight as, when i do laugh and people see my teeth they always are like holy sh*t coz none of them are out of place. my bottom teeth are fine i dont have a problem with them but my top teeth i have a gap between the top 6 teeth. dentist tells me im lucky coz my wisdom teeth will push them all forward - is there a cheaper option to veneer

Cheaper option to porceilin veneers?
First of all, I can't believe that a dentist would actually extract a young patient's teeth and insert a full denture... unless, of course there was rampant decay....





You may be over-self-conscious about your teeth.... I would just leave them alone. They're healthy.... why ruin a good thing? If you decide to go with veneers or crowns, part of the tooth structure is taken away....and not to mention it's alot of money that you could put towards something else...

Reply:Technically yes, but I don't think you will like the answer. You can extract all of your top teeth and got an full upper denture instead. We had a very young patient opt for that instead of veneers and crowns. I really would not recommend that unless you were dead set on doing it a cheaper way. Have you thought of taking out a small loan, there are many places that will even do payment plans with you.
Reply:resin veneers cost about $200 each and are less destructive of tooth structure.
