Can The Teeth Spacing Be Treated With Dental Lumineer?

Thats how my teeth look from different views
Lumineers, orthodontic treatment.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
As far as your problem is concerned, The spacing can be treated with lumineers.
This is the best when you consider appearance(esthetics) and it requires minimal tooth preparation(0.2 mm) compare to veneers where they remove more enamel which results in sensitivity after treatment.
As per your your images, The lumineers are good option for closing the gap between the teeth but you have deep bite, this cannot be corrected through lumineers.
If I am your treating doctor, I would have suggested you to get orthodontic treatment or braces so that it will correct both the deep bite and the spacing or gap between the teeth.
You can go for the lumineers, only the appearance will improve but the deep bite will remain like that. That might damage your teeth in future.
So its better to go for orthodontic treatment rather than lumineers.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
If any queries are there reply me back.


ceramic braces
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your reply.
there are ceramic brackets other than metal braces which are teeth colored. Only these two can correct deep bite. Its ideal for you to go for this since you are young.
if you dont get it corrected the upper teeth may apply more force on the lower teeth and they may become loose.
i hope my answer will help you. Take carr


physiological rest position, normal
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your reply.
During the physiological rest position, the teeth will not be in contact, that is normal.
Only during function the teeth will contact each other.
Regarding your lips, the cause is because of protruded teeth. Once we correct the malaligned teeth it will be normal.
I hope my answer will help you.
If you have any issues you can reply me back.


ceramic braces, lingual orthodontics
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your feedback. I did not give the option of invisalign because invisalign is indicated in trating maloclusion of mild variety. The control over the movement of the teeth are better with braces than invisalign. even though it is new technique to align teeth without putting braces, instead they use removable aligners. So it completely depends upon patients cooperation, hence the treatment out come is less when compared to the regular braces. If I am your treating doctor, i would suggest you to go for either a ceramic braces or lingual orthodontics(where the braces are placed on the inner aspect of the teeth).
Regarding the crown, It can be either replaced with a new crown if it is fractured.
You consult a good orthodontist and take a opinion directly, when we explain infront of you, you will understand better, then you can only decide.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
