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.
Getting veneers doesn't replace the need for normal hygiene — the tooth underneath still needs the same care as any other. Grinding at night is a common reason veneers chip early, so a nightguard is often recommended alongside the procedure.
You approve shape and shade digitally before the lab makes the final porcelain shells. You can request tweaks to the preview until the shape and shade feel right.
Both material options are explained with their tradeoffs for your specific case. Cost, longevity, and turnaround time are laid out side by side before you decide.
Minimal-prep veneers preserve more natural tooth structure when your case allows it. 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.
