What happens to my teeth under veneers?
Your natural teeth remain intact under veneers. We remove only a thin layer of enamel (about 0.5mm) to make room for the veneer. The veneer is then bonded directly to your tooth structure. Your natural tooth provides the foundation and strength, while the veneer provides the cosmetic improvement. Good oral hygiene remains essential.
