I don't like my smile... Looking into veneers?

I'm a guy with fairly small teeth (smaller than most) and... well, let me try to show this visually:





[ ][_][_][_][_][ ] = Top front 6 teeth of a TV celebrity.





|\/[][ ][ ][]\/| = My top front 6 teeth.





Notice the teeth on the 2 ends you can hardly see when I smile because my jaw has a bigger arc than most. Kind of like Elliott Yamin used to have, minus the big teeth :)





Also notice I have a couple small fanged canine teeth. And the teeth between my two front teeth and the fangs (called the lateral incisor?) are quite small.





So I'm 21 years old, trying to figure out what my options are for veneers. I'd prefer no sanding/drilling of my teeth and I'm also looking into price figures.





Does anyone have any recommendations for a guy like me?





-Thanks in advance!

I don't like my smile... Looking into veneers?
Bonding is very inexpensive in comparison to veneers. I would meet with a dentist that has a specialty in cosmetic dentistry.





If they don't do a good job, it is not good.





I used to have a gap and they filled it in and I couldn't be happier.





Good Luck....You have to like your smile
Reply:OK, to be honest it's kind of hard to visualize just how extreme your case is based on the 'image' you gave us and your claim. And I'm sorry if I sound unsupportive of your quest, but I think you might be looking too much into it? My teeth aren't exactly big, I'd say they're about medium-size and they're not perfectly straight, but straight enough that my 'lateral incisor' doesn't look like it's having a boxing match with the front tooth. And I've gotten compliments on my smile.





More often than not, it has to do with the depth of your smile rather than the looks of it. At least that's how I perceive it and I'm a SMILE person. I've found guys' smiles with even crooked teeth attractive.





So I'm just offering an alternative point-of-view and... the best of luck with whatever you plan on doing!
