Composite veneers are tooth-coloured composite resin restorations applied directly to the front surfaces of teeth to improve aesthetics. Unlike porcelain veneers, composite veneers are typically built up freehand or via injection-mould stent in the dentist's chair in a single visit. They require minimal or no enamel preparation, are reversible, and cost substantially less than porcelain — but they have a shorter functional lifespan (typically 5-7 years vs 10-15+ for porcelain), are more prone to staining, and lack the natural translucency of porcelain.

Dental restoration, dental fillings, or simply fillings are dentistry treatments used to restore the function, integrity, and morphology of tooth structure lost due to decay (caries), trauma, or wear. Fillings may also be used to replace or seal tooth structure around dental implants or after more extensive procedures such as root-canal therapy.
