Is there anything I should do before laminate veneer treatment?

Can I get veneers if I have crooked teeth or gaps?

Yes, veneers can improve the appearance of crooked teeth and gaps without needing orthodontic treatment. However, a consultation will confirm suitability.
What materials are veneers made of?

Veneers are made from either ceramic or composite materials, both of which provide a natural-looking and durable finish.
Will my teeth be shaved down a lot?

How long does the veneer procedure take?

Preparation and digital scanning are done in one session. The veneers are crafted within 2–3 days and placed in a separate session lasting about 2 hours.
Will I need to follow any special care routine?

No special care is needed. Brushing and flossing as you would for natural teeth are sufficient. Avoid hard foods initially to let your veneers settle.
