– Placement of a temporary veneer: which adapts the person to live with what will be the definitive dental veneer and which offers protection to the tooth that has been treated prior to the placement of dental veneers.
– Placement of the final veneer: It is not a process that is usually done in a single session, sometimes the veneer has to be modified to completely adapt it to the wearer's needs.
