It’s not advisable for children to get traditional dental veneers. Depending on the situation, veneers may be an option for teenagers. These veneers are different than the ones used for adults, as they preserve more of the tooth enamel and they are not meant to last as long. Once your child reaches adulthood, a more permanent veneer can be placed. Still, this is very rare. Instead of a dental veneer to correct a damaged tooth, consider cosmetic bonding instead. When your child is an adult, they can decide if they want to maintain the bonding or if they’d like to get a veneer instead.
