Veneers are thin, custom-made shells of porcelain or resin material designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. They are commonly used to correct a range of dental issues, including chips, cracks, discoloration, and misalignment.
While veneers are typically placed by cosmetic or restorative dentists, regular dentists may also offer this service. Regular dentists have the necessary training and expertise to prepare teeth for veneers and take impressions for the custom-made shells. However, the actual fabrication and placement of veneers often require specialized equipment and techniques that may not be available in a regular dental office.
