Anyone ever get veneers? Do you regret getting the procedure done?

So I don’t have veneers, but my fiancé is a dentist so I’ve heard lots and lots of veneer stories (good and bad!). Make sure to do your research on the dentist and ask if you can talk to prior patients or see examples.
Also, is this for cosmetic reasons like discoloration? If so, I’d recommend looking into other procedures before. Once you commit to veneers, it’s a lifelong commitment. They have to remove some of your tooth’s enamel in order to fit the veneers on top, so you will always need veneers.

Yes and yes. They look natural but my teeth were lovely before - got sold a line that they’d hardly take enamel off and it they grind your teeth down to nubs. I was young and trying to replace teeth and got sold a bill of goods I regret.

I had a buddy do it. It looks like what it is - a fake smile, with all the jokes about needing sunglasses that go with it. Personally I’d go with more conventional cosmetic dentistry (Invisalign, professional whitening etc.) and regular hygienist visits as well as better home care before permanently ruining my teeth this way unless you have a seriously bad starting point. Viewpoints may differ across the Atlantic but in Europe people are slightly taken aback by porcelain bright white teeth.

I had to get veneers after I got my lights punched out. Very happy to have them. They were matched to the shade of surrounding surviving teeth so they look just like a normal coffee-drinker's smile. I'd rather have my real teeth though.

It’s been 3 years since I (27F) moved to Seattle and still don’t have a solid social circle. Not necessarily a big group… I’m talking 3-4 friends who are easy going and not flakey/ hard to make plans with.

Idk if it’s due to Covid, Seattle freeze, a combination of the two or other factors. Any transplants out there who are NOT the outdoorsy type and feel the same? And if so, how did you get past it?

Good evening all,
With my partner we are considering making a move to the countryside of Switzerland, with a gorgeous RE project offering incredible views on immaculate mountains and lake. However, it is far away, and will require 1h+ train/car commute vs. 10 min biking right now. We are scared it will bite us back at some point, although COVID helped w/ remote working being a new norm. The project will be done 2024, so I hope to have a more relax job by then. Any similar experience to share?
