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. Porcelain resists staining and typically lasts ten to fifteen years; composite costs less and can often be finished in a single visit.
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. Grinding at night is a common reason veneers chip early, so a nightguard is often recommended alongside the procedure.
You approve shape and shade digitally before the lab makes the final porcelain shells. You can request tweaks to the preview until the shape and shade feel right.
Both material options are explained with their tradeoffs for your specific case. Neither option is pushed by default; the choice depends on what you're optimizing for.
Minimal-prep veneers preserve more natural tooth structure when your case allows it. Not every case is a fit, but it's evaluated before committing to a more invasive prep.
Veneers are matched to your natural teeth or your target brighter shade. You see the planned shade against your actual teeth before it's locked in.

"Called and they were upfront that my usual office was booked, then found me somewhere open the same week."
"Price on the phone matched the invoice exactly. No surprise charges at all."

Because enamel is prepped away, veneers generally aren't meant to be removed and left bare.
A decade or more is typical, though grinding habits can shorten that.
A preview lets you fine-tune shape and shade before the final result is made.
Enamel prep is done under local anesthesia, so the process itself generally isn't painful.
Crowns suit more structurally damaged teeth; veneers are a cosmetic front-surface fix.
Pricing depends on how many teeth are involved, confirmed at your consultation.
