What should I ask a dentist before getting veneers?
Ask about the porcelain material, whether the lab is in-house, how much tooth will be removed, whether you can see the result before bonding, and what the aftercare programme includes. These five questions alone will separate premium clinics from the rest.
Is a consultation enough to decide?
A good consultation should answer all ten questions above and leave you feeling informed and unpressured. If you leave a consultation feeling confused or rushed, it was not a good consultation.
What if a clinic can't answer these questions?
If a clinic cannot clearly explain their material, lab process, preparation technique, and aftercare programme, it is a significant red flag. Transparency is the minimum standard for premium dental care.
