    The advantages of dental veneers -- very thin shells of porcelain or resin bonded to the front of teeth -- include:
    • improving the overall appearance of the front teeth
    • covering stained or discolored teeth
    • brightening teeth
    • covering chipped, worn, or damaged teeth
    • filling gaps between the front teeth
    In addition, getting veneers is painless and less destructive to the teeth than crowns.
