Bonding vs. Veneers?


Question:
I have two front teeth that did not seem to grow in the correct way. They somewhat look like baby teeth, which have a triangular shape. When I say triangle shape, they would kind of remind you of vampire teeth, yet WAY smaller. They aren't long at all.

Now, for these two small teeth, do I need to get them bonded, or am I able to get Porcelain Veneers? Im planning to get Porcelain Veneers, but I don't if the two teeth stop me from getting them.

Answers:
Get the Veneers.. their better. I've found our patients seem to enjoy them better and love the look of them more. Porcelain is a harder substance (material) also. Yes, it can still break of course, but it beats the Composite Bonding (tooth colored filling material) by a landslide. The Composite Bonding will stain, much faster than the Porcelain. Plus, the Bonding method, wears faster. Their easily broken.

Go with the Veneers, for the simple fact of the life span is longer and you'll be happier. The cost is steeper than the Bonding, but well worth it. Trust me... i see it EVERYDAY...
I think the best thing is to talk to your dentist. i know with veneers you have to have the tooth ground down to accept the veneer itself. (i had one done today) if the teeth are tiny you might not be able to get one. the best bet, again, talk to the professional. I hope you get a great smile! :)
