Can I have veneers done before my wedding?+
That depends on the date, your oral health and the material involved, so it cannot be answered without an assessment. Mention your wedding date early, as earlier planning leaves more options open.
How much lead time should I leave for veneers?+
No single figure works for everyone, so sooner is generally more comfortable. Your examination will show whether earlier care is needed, and you can ask what that means for your date.
Is composite quicker than porcelain?+
Composite is sculpted directly on the tooth and is often done in a direct workflow, whereas porcelain usually involves fabrication outside the mouth. Speed alone should not decide the material, however.
What will my teeth look like between visits?+
Ask this before your teeth are prepared, as it is especially relevant when an event falls mid-treatment. Your dentist can explain what to expect in your particular plan.
Should I whiten first if my event is soon?+
If you want lighter natural teeth, whitening normally comes first, and any shade match waits until the colour settles. Whitening alone may also be worth considering, so ask about it.
