Veneers are perfect for eliminating that embarrassing gap between two front teeth, correcting a chip, or brightening teeth stained by coffee, cola or medication. Veneers are ultra-thin and very light, bonded to just the front of the tooth. By removing a tiny amount of enamel and placing veneers, less-than-perfect teeth become better contoured, straighter and more translucent. If your smile has a minor defect, and you’d like it corrected without major procedures, veneers just might be for you.
