Is this you?
In short
Many concerns can be improved without altering healthy tooth structure. Whitening changes colour, bonding adds shape, and veneers do both where more change is wanted.
A veneer is a thin shell of porcelain bonded to the front of a tooth. Before anything is changed, a preview shows the planned shape so you can decide with the result in view.
Lightens natural teeth using custom trays and whitening gel.
Tooth-coloured resin shaped onto the tooth to repair chips, close small gaps or even out edges.
Thin ceramic shells that change the shape and colour of the front teeth.
Aligning the teeth can reduce how much other treatment is needed.

Questions
Fitting a veneer usually involves removing a thin layer of enamel, and that cannot be reversed. Your dentist will tell you how much preparation your teeth would need, and whether a less invasive option would achieve what you want.
Porcelain veneers can last for many years with good care, but they are not permanent and may need replacing. Night-time grinding and biting hard objects shorten their life.
Often, yes. Veneers and bonding are matched to the surrounding teeth, so any whitening is usually completed beforehand.
Yes. A digital preview, and where useful a mock-up tried on your own teeth, lets you see the planned change before any tooth is prepared.
