What Are Veneers?

Written by Dr. Mona Board | Jan 2, 2021 4:36:00 AM

Veneer is a cosmetic dental procedure where a layer of aesthetic, tooth-coloured material is used to revamp the entire front surface of your tooth (similar to having an acrylic thumbnail). This enables you to change its length, alignment, colour and feel of your teeth. 

It is a painless and minimally invasive procedure, with no local anaesthetic and minimal removal of tooth substance needed. They are usually made from porcelain or composite resin materials and are permanently bonded to your teeth.
