Can you get Veneers after getting teeth trimmed for Dental Crowns?

Hi:Depending on the amount of tooth structure removed in the back of the tooth you might be able to get a modified veneer.  However, I need to see photo of the prepped tooth in order to give you accurate advice.Best,Dr. Maddahi

A crown prep for a tooth is 360 degrees all around and over the top of a tooth, a veneer is just what you see on the front and minimal on the back of the tooth (think vinyl siding on a house...not stronger but updates the look) You can Veneer over an existing healthy crown in certain situations but is not usually advisable.  If you have crowns, stick with crowns.  I almost only use eMax type crowns as they are plenty strong and offer the best cosmetics, zirconia crowns are harder but look a bit more dull/flat but can be a good option in specific situations.   Your dentist will help you decide as their experience is a great asset for your successful treatment!

Crowns cover the whole tooth and the teeth are prepared by trimming them by 0.5-1mm all around. Veneers only involve trimming the front of the tooth. A veneer of any sort cannot replace a bigger item such as a crown. You can replace the crowns for more aesthetic ones such as Zirconia crowns that are very strong and metal free. Costs range from £800-£1400 per tooth. Their life expectancy is easily over 10 years.
