What is a veneer in TN dentistry?

A veneer in TN dentistry is a layer of material that is placed over a tooth to assist in either improving the aesthetics of a tooth, or to protect the surface of the tooth from damaging. The two main types of materials used to construct a veneer are known as composite and dental porcelain.

A composite veneer may be placed directly or indirectly in the mouth, with the directly placement actually being built-up inside of the mouth, and the indirectly placement constructed in a dental laboratory and bonded later to the tooth with a resin known as panavia.
A dental porcelain veneer may only be indirectly constructed.
