Currently, there are three cosmetic teeth veneer procedures available to help people get rid of discoloration that has been caused to their teeth.

  • Composite Veneer Procedure: Composite Veneers are also known as direct veneers. They can be done in just one visit to the dentist. The procedure is done by the dentist applying a bond and enamel to the teeth.
  • Porcelain Veneer Procedure: Porcelain Veneers are also known as indirect veneers. These type of veneers require at least two visits to your dentist. During this procedure your dentist will have to send stuff to the dental laboratory so they can be created.
  • Lumineer Porcelain Veneer Procedure: Lumineer veneers are the latest version of porcelain veneers. Many people are turning to this alternative because they do not require a bunch of alterations to be made to the original teeth, if any have to be made at all. Also, you will not have to have any numbing medicine administered because it is not a painful procedure.
