Do veneers feel like real teeth?

Question

I would like to get veneers but I don't want to get them if they feel weird in my mouth

Ramin Mahallati, DDS · Answer

Hello and thank you for your question. The short answer is, yes, dental veneers feel quite natural. I recommend following up with your Dentist about your questions or consult with a Prosthodontist, who can discuss with you the different types of veneers to give you the best long-term results. A Prosthodontist is a dental specialist who has advanced training in restoring teeth and can create a customized treatment using the latest techniques in dental veneers.

Hi:I have been practicing cosmetic dentistry for 31 years.  With the exception of 2-3 patients, everyone tells me after a short period of time they feel like real teeth.Best,Dr. Maddahi

Proper planning of the placement or length and thickness of veneers if very important. The smooth texture of veneers is usually appreciated by patients. Patients do not have a feeling that they "feel weird" if planned and done correctly. Hope this helps.

Great question!
Yes, when properly made and placed, porcelain veneers feel just like natural teeth. I would only have veneers placed by an expert cosmetic dentist who uses the best porcelain and has an excellent ceramist.

Benjamin J. Taylor, DMD · Answer

Veneers are made of a variety of materials with the most common and aesthetically pleasing ones being made of a mixture of minerals known as ceramic. These materials mimic natural tooth appearance in shape, texture and color. All should be inspected for fit and function before delivery to ensure the patients approval in both appearance and feel.
