Dental veneers allow anybody to achieve the smile they have always wanted instantly.
This treatment consists on fixing a new surface to the visible side of your teeth with the desired shape, colour and position. Dental veneers are an aesthetic solution that offer you the benefits of whitening, orthodontics and reconstruction.
Digital Smile Design allows for a very precise visualization of the results of the treatment before starting.
Even though it depends on the kind of veneers, usually it takes between two and three sessions.
Porcelain veneers are made in a laboratory and may require a small sculpting of the teeth that will support them. After it, we will take an impression of your mouth that will serve as a model for the dental technician. Once ready, they will be permanently fixed on their position.
Composite veneers are sculpted directly over your teeth in a single session.
In any case, the procedure is quick, comfortable and absolutely painless.
They are, mainly, of two kinds:
Composite
They are an affordable, resistant and easily repaired. Composite is a biocompatible resin that is placed directly over the teeth and sculpted to the desired shape. It’s look and feel is perfectly natural and you will be able to speak with eat normally.
Ceramic
They are a perfect material for dental veneers. It is resistant to the forces it will have to endure in the mouth and to colouring and staining. They will remain white and shiny for a very long time.
No. Veneers are a cosmetic treatment. If your teeth are badly aligned, crowded, broken or stained, veneers will be useful for covering and improving their aspect, but the underlying problem will still be there.
