Veneers are thin shells, which covers teeth to get amazing results by transforming stained, chipped & crooked teeth into flawlessly beautiful smile. It is done by removing/stripping small amount of enamel and then custom veneers permanently bound to existing teeth. Nowadays it is done by non-invasive procedure that ultimately gives the best results and is probably done in just two visits.
Veneers are not the false teeth. they work naturally, they just improve the teeth appearance that is already present. Material used in creating veneers are closely related to natural teeth material that is strong enough to allow person to treat them the way they treat their natural teeth like eating all food items. With age, we lose teeth volume but these customized veneers restore our dental support for lips and give us a more youthful appearance. they are available in different styles whatever a person wants. They are also known as Hollywood smile.

Anything from outside of the body is a prosthesis or in medical words anything which replaces the natural part is a prosthesis. A prosthesis has a lifespan and as I speak about dental prosthesis we can say it lasts not more than 10-15 years and need replacement.
