Hi all!
I got my braces off a couple of weeks ago to fix some overcrowding, a crossbite and to widen my upper arch as much as possible. I knew I wouldn't be 100% happy with the results like I would have been if I had gone down the route of surgery to expand my palate. Unfortunately I can't see any difference at all in the width of my smile. It's really awful and I feel I've completely wasted my money and 1.5 years in braces.
I was just wondering if it's possible to get veneers to correct the problem now? Has anyone done this before and what sort of money am I looking at?

Yes you can get prosthetic masking with veneers, however its has disadvantages. If you would not consider surgical expansion it may be the only option open to you. Best get a consultation to discuss your options.
