Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain Veneers should be very smooth and feel like natural teeth. If they feel rough or grainy, it might be possible to polish them to attain a smooth and natural feel. If you have resin veneers, they should also be able to polish them so they feel smooth. The newer resins polish beautifully!
Hope this helps

Indirect veneers are smooth
Indirect veneers are smooth as are most porcelain restorations. But if a direct veneer is placed ( no lab) the
dentist bonds composite on the tooth and shapes the tooth as a veneered tooth , then the resin may have some grainy texture .

Veneers should feel smooth like natural teeth.
Veneers should feel smooth and similar to the adjacent teeth around them. If they feel rough, either on the front, sides or back of the veneers, you should let your dentist know so they can address these issues. The junction where the tooth and veneer come together should be smooth. The materials used to fabricate the veneers can sometimes have an effect on how smooth or glossy the veneers feel. This can depend on how well they are made or polished.

Are Porcelain Veneers Smooth?

Veneers should be as SMOOTH as your own teeth
Yes, veneers are smooth. Truly cosmetic veneers, whether porcelain or direct bonded, should mimic the natural anatomy of the teeth they are covering. Depending on how "natural" YOU want them to be, determines how much anatomy the dentist and/or lab technician adds to the surface.

Porcelain veneers are very smooth
Depending on the material, veneers are smooth. If veneers are directly created (no lab used at all), then they are often made out of a composite material. This material, if polished to a high shine, can appear too smooth but feel fine. If they are created to have natural curves, bumps and anatomy, then they may not feel as smooth but look more real. There are many compromises with composite veneers, but many people accept them.
