Covering placed over a tooth (6)

I believe the answer is:

veneer

(Other definitions for veneer that I've seen before include "Face" , "Fine overlay or superficial refinement" , "Thin layer glued to a surface" , "Thin top layer of decorative wood" , "Capital of Kenya" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
