So what are prepless veneers? Prepless Veneers are Porcelain Veneers that are thin shells of porcelain in in that are bonded to the front surfaces of the teeth to improve the color, shape, size, symmetry, straightness, and fullness of the smile.
Prepless Veneers means that there is some enameloplasty, contouring, or alterations made to the tooth structure or enamel prior to the veneers going over the teeth. Again, to clarify this contouring is limited to the enamel surface and done strategically and conservatively.
Prepless Veneers also are a mostly additive procedure to the teeth.
Here are some similarities between no prep veneers and prepless veneers…
When doing Both No prep and Prepless Porcelain veneer restorations, we are not drawing any margins onto the teeth.
Also, in many cases, the patient does not wear temporaries in the interim time between their first visit and second visit while the permanent veneers are being made by the lab.
