Is it difficult to remove porcelain veneers?

Great question, and the key is defining what you consider difficult.In general, the teeth need to be numb, and the drill is going to run for about the same amount of time it took to shape the teeth to begin with.At that point, the enamel is thin or missing, so the teeth will need to be covered with new porcelain veneers or crowns.In the right office, this should not be difficult!

Hello,We routinely remove porcelain veneers in the office when we are either doing revision cases or replacing very old veneers. The process is no more difficult than the actual preparation of teeth for veneers. After removal of veneers and the teeth are exposed, any existing decay needs to be removed. Care should be taken to remove as little extra tooth structure as possible. Good luck!
