Can veneers wrap 360 degrees around a tooth or would these be considered crowns?
Answer: Veneers can provide full coverage Absolutely, many cases due to decay need full coverage- we call that a 360 Crown made of Empress material. But it is a veneers wrapped like a crown.

Answer: Crowns Veneering is similar to what is done, say, to renew the look of kitchen cabinets. Only the front of the cabinets are altered.

Answer: Dental Vocabulary This question is basically a question of dental vocabulary. The term dental veneer or laminate refers to the front facing of a tooth with a thin piece of custom fabricated material typically ceramic or composite.

Answer: Technically, no....then it's a crown This is a good question actually. People always ask me when we are doing smile consultations "which will be crowns" and "which will be veneers". Technically, a veneer covers the front surfaces of the tooth. When the porcelain wraps 360 degrees around a tooth it, technically, is a crown. I always tell people that they're all just "porcelain restorations" because it's almost impossible (in our practice) to tell a crown vs. veneer because essentially they're made from the same material (but in the instance of a crown.....just more of it).
