In what situations are laminate porcelain veneers applied?

– In unhealthy and structurally damaged teeth (especially teeth with fillings, yellowing in the front area, fractures, and stains)
– For joining widely spaced teeth in the front (achieving a superior aesthetic result)
– Teeth that are broken and worn down at the front
– In patients who have old fillings and these fillings have fallen out, yellowed, or darkened
– Teeth that turn black after root canal treatment

Who cannot undergo laminate veneer treatments?
In individuals who grind their teeth at night, suffer from bruxism, have jaw disorders, or have habits such as nail biting or pen chewing, as well as those with severe gum recession, laminate veneers cannot be applied without first treating these underlying conditions. Applying laminate veneers to these individuals would damage the existing veneer; therefore, these factors must be addressed first.
How many sessions does it take to complete laminate veneer application?
If the patient has no problems requiring intervention in their teeth or gums, laminate veneers can be applied in 2 or 3 sessions. This is approximately a 1 or 2-week process.

Therefore, to briefly explain the stages of laminate veneer application, as mentioned above, in the first two sessions your teeth are measured, the desired color shades are determined, your teeth are very thinly ground to 0.3-0.7 mm, and in the next session, the laminate veneers, which have been measured and prepared for bonding, are bonded to your teeth.
It is said that laminate porcelain veneers eventually fall off; is this true? Can laminate veneers fall off?
