and they stay forever.
I have crowns on my two front teeth. I got them about 15 years ago. You can’t tell. My dentist did a beautiful job. The process involved temporary crowns and multiple visits.

I would love to see my dentist’s face if I walked in with a package of Amazon veneers and asked him to glue them on. He’d probably laugh his ass off. Maybe I’ll do it just for fun.
