Visitor asks:
Dear Sir/Madam!
I am 50 years old, my teeth are small and the genetic quality is poor, but I make sure they are regularly cleaned and repaired. Unfortunately, I have many small fillings on my front teeth and, because I do not yet want veneers/crowns, I would like to know the following:
- is it possible to use veneers to cover the front teeth (4–6 teeth), even though they contain many fillings
- is a veneer bonded only to the front (facial) surface of the tooth or also to the back
Thank you for your answer, have a nice day, Ksenija
Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:
Dear Sir/Madam!
The decision between veneers and crowns is based on several factors. If a considerable amount of hard dental tissue is missing (fillings), we prefer to make dental crowns. A veneer is bonded only to the front surface of the tooth.
Have a nice day!
