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.
A small amount of enamel prep is typical, which is part of why the process is considered permanent. Most patients see a preview before committing, so there are no surprises with the final look.
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.
A digital mock-up shows your expected new smile before prep work or lab fabrication begins. Adjustments to the mock-up happen before any permanent work, not after.
Long-lasting porcelain or same-day composite bonding, depending on budget and timeline. Neither option is pushed by default; the choice depends on what you're optimizing for.
Some cases qualify for ultra-thin veneers requiring little to no enamel removal. 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.

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.
