Do you dream of a perfect, flawless smile? Dental veneers are a popular cosmetic solution to enhance the appearance of your teeth. In this article, you’ll learn what veneers are, the step-by-step procedure, the pros and cons, and how to know if veneers are right for you.
What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells made of porcelain or composite resin that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. They can instantly improve the colour, shape, size, or length of your teeth, giving you a beautiful, natural-looking smile.

The Veneer Procedure: Step by Step
- Consultation: Your dentist evaluates your teeth and discusses your smile goals.
- Preparation: A small amount of enamel is removed from the front of your teeth to make space for the veneers.
- Impression: An impression or digital scan is taken to create custom veneers.
- Bonding: Once ready, the veneers are bonded to your teeth with strong dental cement.
