The veneers are generally porcelain veneers, whether glass ceramics, cast porcelain veneers or zirconia veneers on the market, all belong to one of the porcelain veneers.

Both porcelain teeth and porcelain veneers need to grind off the discolored bad teeth, and then use adhesive to stick them to the primary teeth.

Dental veneer is usually used to repair slightly damaged teeth, so the parts that need grinding are better, or even do not need grinding.

Porcelain teeth are grinded according to the degree of tooth damage, and the degree of wear is relatively large.

3、 Different service life:

Porcelain teeth need to be ground off a large number of teeth, and doctors need to be skilled, otherwise it is easy to cause tooth sensitivity and shorten life.

Porcelain veneer: The amount of molars is small, and there is almost no side effect on the teeth after restoration.
