You need to see a dentist. They will x-ray your teeth and determine what your next step in treatmen should be.
Before anything, he will probably want you to have your teeth cleaned. He will then asess (sp) your teeth for decay and other factors and determine what your best choice will be.
When one receives veneers, however, the teeth are not removed. The veneers goes over the existing tooth.
Same thing with crowns. The teeth are just filed down. Teeth are removed when you receive bridges. implants, or partials.
I hope your smile is as pretty as you want it to be very soon!
Good luck!

Well if you wanted venners, they wouldnt remove your teeth, meerly file them down to a point, and cap them with the veneer. There are also Lumineers that go over the front of your tooth to give the appearance of a naturally prefect tooth, which is pretty much composite bonded to your teeth, no caps, or the filing down of your existing tooth. Just a heads up: **Venners are more expensive**

Yes, but they don't remove your teeth, they just grind them down to put the venners on.

I would say you should see a dentist first... maybe 2 different dentists because some dentists will always recommend the most expensive treatment.
Depending on how badly bent your teeth are, it might rectified just by using braces.
