Who is (or is not) a good candidate for veneers?

Short answerVeneers are suitable for many, but not all, dental situations.

• Pre-existing conditions like untreated cavities or gum disease must be addressed first for a healthy foundation.
• Severe teeth grinding, clenching, or major alignment issues like deep bites or crowding may require other treatments first or make veneers less advisable as the forces can damage the ceramic.
• A thorough examination by your dentist is essential to determine if you are a good candidate and what preparatory steps are needed.
