Dental veneers are recommended for many oral reasons aside from achieving perfect-looking teeth. This cosmetic dental treatment is also being used for concerns relating to accidents, bad oral habits, or natural reasons, including:  

  • Stained or yellow teeth 
  • Chipped or crooked tooth 
  • Damaged enamel  
  • Misaligned teeth  
  • Uneven smile

How long is the treatment process?

Your dentist will begin by shaping the teeth and get the right shade closest to its color—some may put on temporary veneers. Once you have everything ready, the dental lab will then start creating the veneers, making sure that they are the right fit for you.
