Veneer Quiz Answers
- False. Unlike a dental crown that covers your entire tooth, a veneer only covers the portion of your tooth that people can see when they look at your smile. Additionally, they are translucent for a natural finish.
- False. You will need to choose toothpastes that are not abrasive to avoid damaging the veneers. Aside from that possible change, you may go about your usual hygiene routine.
- False. Veneers are known for their stain resistance, so you can continue enjoying the same foods and beverages you have always loved.
- True. You can achieve a whiter smile, filled spaces between teeth, a straighter looking smile, the coverage of cracks, chips, and stains, and improved tooth shape and size.
