What it involves

A veneer is a thin shell, usually made from porcelain or composite resin, bonded to the front surface of a tooth. A dentist prepares the tooth, often by removing a thin layer of enamel, and attaches the veneer so it covers chips, gaps or marks. Because enamel is removed, the tooth will usually need some form of covering afterwards, which is worth discussing before you decide.

Who it is for

Veneers are for people with healthy teeth who want to change the shape, size or colour of one or more front teeth. The dentist will check whether another approach, such as bonding or whitening, may be enough, and will explain the risks and the upkeep involved.

How long it usually takes

Porcelain veneers normally need at least two visits, with a laboratory making them between appointments. Composite veneers can often be shaped in a single visit.

What to expect

At the first visit the dentist discusses your goals, examines your teeth, prepares them and takes impressions or scans. Temporary veneers may be fitted. At the next visit the final veneers are checked and bonded.

Aftercare

Brush and clean between teeth as normal, and attend regular check-ups. Avoid biting hard objects with veneered teeth. If you grind your teeth, ask whether a night guard would protect them. Contact the dentist if a veneer feels loose, chips or comes off.

When to seek it

Ask about veneers if you are bothered by the shape or colour of a front tooth and want to know what is possible. Be cautious about promises of a specific outcome.

What affects the cost

Cost depends on the material, the number of teeth, laboratory fees, any preparatory treatment and the practice. HealthNaro shows a price only where a clinic has supplied a figure with a source and date.
