These custom shells,typically made of porcelain (sometimes plastic), cover the front sides of theteeth to change their color and/or shape. Veneers last longer than bonding andprovide a superior appearance. They are less expensive than crowns. Veneers canimprove teeth that:

·        Have spaces between them

·        Have become chipped or worn

·        Are permanently stained

·        Are poorly shaped

·        Are slightly crooked

Before inserting veneers,the dentist first takes an impression of your tooth, then buffs the toothbefore cementing the veneer in place. A beam of light helps harden the cement,which secures the veneer to your tooth.
