Procedure to get dental veneers The procedure to get dental veneers can vary depending on the type that you will choose. The most commonly used dental veneers are porcelain veneers and resin-based veneers. Porcelain veneers The first step to making porcelain veneers is taking an impression of the teeth. The mold is sent to a laboratory to create a custom porcelain veneer. In the meanwhile, doctors will give the patients a temporary veneer. Once the permanent ones return from the lab, doctors will have a fitting session to check if they are a good fit or no and make adjustments accordingly. Lastly, the porcelain veneers will be bonded to the teeth. Resin-based composite veneers The dentist will start the process by cleaning and reshaping the teeth. Once this is done, they will bond the resin-based composite onto the teeth and sculpt it accordingly. They will also adjust the color to make the fitting look as natural as possible.
