Composite bonding vs veneers
Choose bonding for chips, small gaps and edge wear when you want a reversible-feeling, same-day change. Choose veneers when colour, shape and durability matter more, and you accept a small amount of enamel preparation.
Whitening should happen before either, because neither resin nor porcelain bleaches like natural enamel. We match the material to the shade you actually want to keep.
Neither fixes gum disease or a bite that needs orthodontics first. An honest plan might be Invisalign, then bonding — not a row of veneers on crowded teeth. See bonding, veneers and smile makeovers.
