Veneers are different to dental implants or crowns. Veneers only cover the front surface of the tooth, while crowns wrap the entire tooth and are slightly thicker. Veneers are also less invasive as the tooth requires less preparation to be fitted.
An implant is very different as it requires installation in the bone to replace a missing tooth. A crown can be placed on top of that at a later date to increase the tooth’s strength.
Whilst Porcelain Veneers are a very popular dental procedure, it is important to know that they are permanent Your dentist will need to slightly change the structure of your natural teeth to properly place them.
They are an excellent way to hide discoloured, crooked or damaged teeth, but ensure you know all your options before getting them. There are other non-permanent options, like direct composite veneers, that may be a better option. You can make an appointment with one of our team to find the most fitting solution for you.
