Veneers
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of tooth-coloured materials designed to cover the front side of teeth to improve the overall appearance of teeth.
They are made of either thin plastic resin or porcelain and can be placed to:
correct poorly formed or mildly mal-positioned teeth
close gaps between teeth
mask internal stains
restore partially broken-down teeth
Tooth preparation is minimal and confined to the enamel structure. The veneer is bonded to the tooth structure with tooth-coloured resin cement. Several visits are necessary to complete treatment.
Patients should be aware that this is usually an irreversible process because it's necessary to remove a small amount of enamel from your teeth to accommodate the shell.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are custom-made porcelain shells that cover the front of your teeth. They're versatile, great for closing gaps and whitening discolored teeth.
These veneers are durable, lasting up to a decade, giving you a long-lasting, natural-looking smile that's easy to maintain. Many patients have achieved their perfect smile with porcelain veneers.
