Can veneers be finished in one trip?+
Porcelain usually takes several appointments because of planning, preparation, fabrication and bonding. Composite can often be done more directly, depending on scope, though that still requires an assessment. Ask which applies to you.
How long is each veneer appointment?+
This varies with the stage and the number of teeth, so no general figure is given here. Before booking, ask how long the specific visit may take.
Is there a gap between preparation and bonding?+
With porcelain, there is typically time while the veneers are being custom-made. Ask how long that interval could be in your case, and what your teeth may be like during it.
Should I choose composite just to save trips?+
Convenience is worth mentioning, but it should not outweigh what suits your smile. Staining, repair and enamel preparation also differ, and your dentist can explain how those points apply to your teeth.
Who looks after a problem between appointments?+
Call the clinic and describe what has happened so you can be advised. If you also see another dentist regularly, it may be useful to tell them about your treatment.
