Modern porcelain veneers are designed to preserve as much of your natural tooth structure as possible. In most cases, only a minimal amount of enamel is removed to create the ideal fit and appearance.
Because a small amount of enamel is permanently reshaped, porcelain veneers are generally considered an irreversible treatment.
When properly planned and performed by experienced cosmetic dentists, veneers are a conservative and long-lasting solution that provides natural-looking results while maintaining the health of your teeth.
