Traditional Veneers
- The traditional veneers require the removal of a very thin layer of enamel that has been applied to the teeth, and for them to be adhered to the teeth, it is necessary to have the natural layer of tooth structure removed in advance.

- It should be noted that the veneers are considered not to be fully reversible because the removal of enamel that was done is irreversible thus to regain the original look of the teeth, the patients have to put them back on.
- It is clear that with proper oral care and regular dental check-ups, traditional veneers can last for even more than 15 years, and it all depends on how the patient can take care of his or her teeth.
