subject: Porcelain Veneers [print this page] Unlike many dental procedures, porcelain veneers are minimally invasive and require very little time on your part. During your first office visit, your cosmetic dentist will prepare your teeth by removing a very thin layer of enamel. This helps form a strong bond when the veneers are placed and ensures that they do not add bulk to your teeth. Measurements of your teeth are taken after they are prepared so that your veneers will fit perfectly. The veneers are then made in a lab. During your second visit they are bonded in place.
