Veneers or Laminates will be the best choice for the aesthetic purpose. They are highly effective and blend with the adjacent teeth and are a part of smile makeover. They are very thin, shell made up of either porcelain and or composite material that is designed to cover only the front portion of the teeth. In order to attach them there is a need to reduce a small portion of the tooth structure. If the reduction is not done it will simply make them look outwards then the natural teeth in an obvious manner and also not stick adequately. The tooth structure is fundamentally unchanged and the enamel (outer layer of teeth) remains intact. There is only a minor preparation by trimming the teeth that is almost comfortable for oral health. They can even change the size, shape, colour and length of teeth.
