Can I have just one veneer?+
A single veneer may be possible. The main challenge is making it blend with the natural teeth on either side, which is why colour, texture and shape are looked at so closely.
Is there a typical number of veneers in a plan?+
There is no usual figure that would tell you much. What counts is which teeth concern you, which ones show, and whether your teeth, gums and bite are suitable for veneers at all.
Do veneers have to come in pairs?+
Not as a rule. Sometimes treating matching teeth on either side helps with balance, and at other times a single tooth is the only one involved. Ask your dentist to explain the reasoning.
Could I start with two and add more later?+
You can raise that idea. Your natural teeth, the shade of the earlier veneers and the overall design would all need to be considered, as adding teeth later may affect how well everything matches.
Does a veneer need to match my lower teeth?+
Upper and lower teeth are seen together when you speak and smile, so they form part of the overall picture. Your bite and how much of each row you show would be looked at in planning.
