Lumineers? Braces? What can fix this?!


Question:

Lumineers? Braces? What can fix this?

Ok so i have this tooth on the top right part of my mouth and it sticks out more than the other ones. My dentist said that the teeth next to it moved in and that tooth had no room to grow so it pushed out.

thats the picture of it. umm so is braces the only way to fix it?
And can lumineers or veeners help? i just saw an ad for it on tv and didnt know exactly what it was. So what are they? can they fix my tooth or is braces the only alternative?

Thank you

Oh and if you can is there an age limit on getting lumineers? like 10-20 or something like that because im 13 (soon 14) and i want to know if i will qualify? thanks


Answers:

braces will probably be the best option for you. save the lumineers for when you are older - since you are young now, the bone in your jaw will be much softer, much easier to re-set for the rest of your life. lumineers will break and cause embarassing problems later on if you get em now. stick with your real teeth as long as you can. i had my second set of braces when i turned 14...it isn't too bad :)
