Veneering is not always a good choice. Because in some cases it may adversely affect those who undergo dental treatment in this way, such as.
It can’t be fixed because some of the dentin has to be removed before the tartar is attached.
Sensitive teeth easily. because the enamel layer is scraped off. This weakens the strength of the teeth and results in sensitive teeth easily.

Costly: Veneering is relatively expensive compared to other dental treatment.
Cannot be repaired If the enamel is broken or chipped, it cannot be repaired as it is firmly sealed to the tooth.
The color of the enamel plate may not be exactly the same as the actual tooth color, making it possible to notice the difference. And will not be able to change the color once the enamel is applied, therefore, teeth should be bleached before veneer to make the teeth color as close as possible.
It does not help prevent tooth decay. Since Veneer is the only coating on the front of the tooth, the other teeth can still develop decay.

It is different from a crown that protects from decay all around.
Not suitable for people with oral health problems such as tooth decay, gum disease. or there is not enough space of the anterior tooth enamel to attach the veneer.
