A veneer is a thin shell, usually porcelain or sometimes composite resin, bonded to the front of a tooth to reshape it, resize it, or change its color. Porcelain resists staining and typically lasts ten to fifteen years; composite costs less and can often be finished in a single visit.
Getting veneers usually means a thin layer of enamel is removed first, so the shell sits flush instead of bulky. A digital or physical mock-up shows the expected shape and shade before the permanent veneers are fabricated.
Veneers won't stop new decay from forming on the rest of the tooth, so routine cleanings still matter just as much afterward. Grinding at night is a common reason veneers chip early, so a nightguard is often recommended alongside the procedure.
You approve shape and shade digitally before the lab makes the final porcelain shells. You can request tweaks to the preview until the shape and shade feel right.
Both material options are explained with their tradeoffs for your specific case. Cost, longevity, and turnaround time are laid out side by side before you decide.
Some cases qualify for ultra-thin veneers requiring little to no enamel removal. Whether you qualify depends on your existing tooth shape and alignment, assessed at consultation.
Veneers are matched to your natural teeth or your target brighter shade. A shade guide and sometimes a trial smile help confirm the choice before the final shells are made.
Whatever the specifics of your case, the specialist we route you to has handled it before.

Because enamel is prepped away, veneers generally aren't meant to be removed and left bare.
With good hygiene, they commonly last ten to fifteen years before replacement is needed.
Modern porcelain mimics natural enamel translucency, and shade-matching avoids an obviously artificial look.
Enamel prep is done under local anesthesia, so the process itself generally isn't painful.
Crowns suit more structurally damaged teeth; veneers are a cosmetic front-surface fix.
