Introduction:

        The term " Veneer " literally means a sheath or a thin covering. Here, the emphasis is on the word " thin ". A Veneer is thus a covering which is used on the facial surfaces of teeth ( that is, those tooth surfaces which are visible while speaking or eating ). In this treatment, a microfilm of tooth surface is reduced and then a veneer is prepared to cover that tooth surface.
        The most popular use of veneers is when a desirable shade, colour and appearance of the front teeth is required for cosmetic purposes.

Advantages:

• Improves the aesthetics of the face
• Enhances the patient's smile
• A front tooth having a crack is very unsightly - a veneer covers this up and the smile is restored
