Details.
Thin, custom-made porcelain shells cover the frontal surface of teeth to improve the appearance of discoloured, chipped, cracked, worn, gapped, misaligned or unevenly shaped teeth. Porcelain veneers are prepared by a dental ceramist and require at least two visits, with preparation of the underlying tooth. The procedure includes cleaning, etching, bonding, fitting and final polishing. Porcelain veneers are stain-resistant, durable and typically last 8 to 15 years with proper care.
