What is the difference between a veneer and bonding?
A veneer is usually fabricated from a non-porous porcelain material in a dental laboratory. It is a thin wafer no thicker than a fingernail. They are the most elegant and versatile way to improve your smile. They can change the color, spacing, alignment, length, or shape of your teeth. The shade can be customized to your specific taste and will last for many years. Bonding is a procedure using composite resin. It can also change the color, improve spacing, and repair broken teeth. Bonding, while beautiful and functional, is a porous material that will discolor over time. The durability is also less than with a porcelain veneer. It is a great short-term solution for many people.
