I have been informed that veneers bond to the tooth enamel and if the quality and quantity of enamel on my teeth is poor, we might need to consider crowns for the teeth. My dentist has advised me about the following post-operative issues with veneers.

Hard food substances can cause veneers to fracture.
My habit of night grinding can cause damage to my veneers and I will therefore have to wear the provided night guard.
