Veneers are a very popular treatment option for a variety of reasons.  They are one of the most conservative restorations that can be done.  This means that the amount of tooth structure that Dr. Dixon must remove in order to do a veneer is very small.  Generally, only 0.3 to 0.7 mm needs to be removed from the surface of your tooth.

The veneer is made and bonded to the tooth, incorporating the desired changes in shape and color.  Since the veneer is so thin and there is no metal in it, the esthetic potential is very high.  Veneers can be made of two different materials, either composite or porcelain.
