Veneer
A veneer is a thin layer of material (0.3-0.6mm) placed over the front part of the tooth to improve the aesthetics of a smile. They look like natural teeth. Veneers can be used to correct a wide range of dental issues such as stained teeth, chipped or worn teeth, crooked or misshapen teeth and uneven spaces or a large gap between the upper front teeth
Benefits of veneer

- They are permanent and durable. With proper maintenance, a dental veneer will last between 10 and 15 years.
