In-Depth
What You Need to Know
Veneers are a popular cosmetic dentistry option for correcting chipped, stained, misaligned, or unevenly spaced teeth. They are typically made from porcelain or composite resin. Porcelain veneers are more stain-resistant and better mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural teeth. The procedure usually requires two to three visits and involves removing a small amount of enamel from the tooth surface. Veneers can last 10-15 years with proper care.
