A porcelin veneer is a very thin facing of porcelain which fits over the surface of your tooth and is glued to it. They are used to improve the appearance of a tooth and can mask mottled or discoloured teeth, repair broken teeth, improve the appearance of twisted or misaligned teeth ,and used to close the gaps that can occur between teeth.
Porcelain veneers have to be made in a dental laboratory and then fitted and glued on to the tooth at a second visit. The advantage of porcelain is that it is very highly glazed, doesn't stain and is hard enough that it doesn't wear.
Veneers look good, there is minimal tooth preparation and they are relatively inexpensive. They can last a long time without deteriorating and only rarely break or come loose. They would be the dentists first choice for improving the appearance of basically sound healthy teeth.
