A porcelain veneer is a thin layer of material placed over a tooth, either to improve the aesthetics of a tooth or to protect the tooth’s surface from damage. Veneers are placed to mask discolorations, to brighten teeth and to improve a smile.This procedure requires little or no anesthesia and can be the ideal choice for improving the appearance of the front teeth.
Veneers are an excellent alternative to crowns in many situations.
Patients with gaps between their front teeth or teeth that are chipped or worn may consider veneers. Generally, veneers will last for many years, and the technique has shown remarkable longevity when properly performed.
