Can I hv veneers fitted to lower set of teeth?

Q. Dear Dr. Caplan, My First question is :- I am thinking of haveing veneers but wonder whether the natural tooth will become damaged in a similar way that natural finger nails become damaged by having false nail fitted onto them ? My Second question is :- I notice that the vast majority of patience have veneers fitted to the upper set of teeth, can they be also fitted with equal result to the Lower set ?

A. Veneers usually require some tooth to be removed to allow them to fit properly within the smile.  This obviously will mean that the tooth is not the same as it was before.  However when veneers are fitted correcly they will last you many years.  They can be fitted to lower teeth
