Cosmetic Dentistry - Veneers Overview Ceramic Crowns Veneers Tooth Whitening
	Veneers are thin custom-made shells that are designed to cover the front side of teeth. Made of tooth-colored materials, veneers are used to treat spaces between teeth and teeth that are permanently stained, poorly shaped or slightly crooked. They may also cover teeth that are chipped or worn. Veneers are made from composite resins, acrylic material, or porcelain. Placing veneers is often an irreversible process because a small amount of enamel is usually removed to accommodate the thickness of the shell. Anesthetic may be required depending upon the way the tooth is being prepared. The procedure requires just a few appointments. Like any restoration, it is possible, over time, for the veneer to come off or for decay to develop. In that case, a new veneer may be required.
