Could veneers give me a lisp?+
New front surfaces may take some getting used to, and sounds can feel different at first. Tell your dentist if you speak for a living, and report anything that does not settle.
Can I test how they sound before they are bonded?+
The try-in is when each veneer is evaluated before bonding. Ask whether you can say a few words at that point, so that any concern about speech can be discussed.
Should I take time off work after preparation?+
That depends on your plan and how you are feeling. Ask at your preparation discussion how you are likely to look and feel, then decide what suits your job.
Will a brighter shade look strange under office lights?+
Colour can seem different depending on the light. When choosing a shade, mention where you spend your day, and look at the options in the conditions available during the appointment.
Are veneers a work expense or a health treatment?+
We cannot advise on taxes or employer benefits. Ask for a treatment estimate once you have a plan, and check with your insurer or plan administrator about any coverage.
