A veneer is a thin shell of porcelain used to cover a whole tooth to mask a variety of issues such as uneven shape, eroded thin teeth, discolouration, and heavily filled teeth. Sometimes we give the option to replace composite veneers that regularly chip or stain with porcelain veneers.
Composite bonding can be placed onto teeth with acid preparation and minimal removal of tooth, porcelain veneers require further tooth surface removal.
Veneers are less prone to chipping and staining as their composite veneer companions, on average veneers can last 8-10 years.
The media has displayed many horrific tourism dentistry pictures of “stump like” veneer preparations to healthy teeth, this can cause pain and risk of losing teeth. Although a tooth does need to be thinned for a veneer it does not have to be that much!
