Veneer vs. crown decision aid
Six questions that map your situation against the standard clinical decision criteria. Educational — your dentist still drives the final recommendation based on direct examination.
1. How much of the natural tooth is still present?
2. Is the front surface mostly enamel or already dentin?
3. What is the primary goal?
4. Do you clench or grind your teeth?
5. Is the tooth significantly misaligned, crowded, or rotated?
6. How dark or stained is the underlying tooth?
