Do I have to file my teeth down for laminates? Photo attached.
From your photo you'd be a great candidate for minimal or no-prep leaf laminates, often we remove little or no enamel at all.
Aesthetic
Ultra-thin, no-prep porcelain leaf laminates.
Porcelain laminates are wafer-thin restorations, around 0.3-0.7 mm, bonded to the front surface of the teeth. Their thinness, translucency and high compatibility with natural tissue make them one of the most natural-looking and conservative aesthetic options available.
They are ideal for masking discoloured teeth, closing small gaps, lengthening short teeth, repairing wear from grinding or minor trauma, and camouflaging minimal crookedness, all with minimal loss of your own enamel, and sometimes with no drilling at all.
We begin with video and photos of you speaking and smiling, then digital intra-oral scans and a mock-up so you can preview the result. After any minimal preparation, the laminates are produced by our laboratory and bonded with high-strength, tissue-compatible adhesives.
Because they are made from durable, stain-resistant ceramic, leaf laminates can last for many years with good oral hygiene and routine maintenance. They are not suitable where untreated clenching, grinding or bite problems would overload them, these are addressed first.

Will the laminates stain over time?
Quality ceramic resists coffee and tea staining, so they stay bright for years with normal care.
