15 years ago, when I was in high school, I had laminate veneers placed on my upper four front teeth, and after living comfortably and being satisfied with them for a long time
as I started working, I became more aware of my face shape, and because I had an open bite, this was a case where I had orthodontic treatment again for 2 years. The orthodontic treatment cost about 5 million won, and as I kept going, the clinic became more and more famous, so it became really hard to get an appointment. They said if I had extractions I would end up with a protruding mouth, so I didn't have any teeth extracted. The upper and lower teeth were brought into proper contact, and it was also done for cosmetic purposes. As a result, my face feels a bit more refined? That kind of impression. In the middle, they said the laminates could break, but they didn't break and everything was finished well. It's been 4 years since I removed the braces, and even though the retainer on the inside came off, I still live with my teeth in that state without any gaps..
Recently, while biting into a metal chopstick, the front tooth laminate broke, so I'm in the middle of replacing the laminate again.. With two molars and a few resin fillings, another 4 million won went out..
I've spent too much money only at the dentist, so in the end, if I were to start over financially, orthodontic treatment would be easier than laminate veneers!
