Should I Switch out my Veneers for Crowns?

June 27, 2011
Asked By:TETE in San Francisco, CA

I had all front 6 teeth veenered about 6 years ago. They have at one time or another broke off (about 4 of them). My left front tooth veneer has broke off again for the 3rd time. My teeth behind the veneers have also darkened and you can see their outline through the veneer in bright light or sunshine, making the veneer darker overall, in a way. I'm thinking of just going to a crown everytime a veneer breaks again. Is this a good choice?
