If you get veneers on your molars be sure to have the Dr really check your bite and your side to side grinding habits. A nightguard can be worn at nite to protect your veneers from chipping also. When I do veneers, all my patients get a nightguard to protect their investments and time.
Do veneers on molars chip?
I would like to add veneers to my molars to achieve a wider smile. I have had orthodontic procedures and because of my age, my teeth are in good position but my smile can't be 'widened' any further.
Can you tell me if it is more likely that the veneers will come off teeth in the back of my mouth? I am worried about pressure and chipping.

A: porcelain CAN but doesnt always
If done well, the odds are in your favor, but nothing in life is 100%. Managing the bite is key, but it is done all the time.
