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. Composite bonding is quicker and cheaper per tooth; porcelain holds up longer and mimics natural enamel more convincingly.
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. Patients who grind their teeth are usually advised to wear a nightguard to protect new veneers from chipping.
You approve shape and shade digitally before the lab makes the final porcelain shells. Adjustments to the mock-up happen before any permanent work, not after.
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.
Shape and shade are customized so the result looks deliberate, not uniformly artificial. 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.
Veneers cover just the front surface; crowns encase the entire visible tooth.
