Improve your smile with dental veneers

Dental Veneers

Eliminating some visible cracks, stains, small fractures or edges that show wear from the teeth, through a non-invasive aesthetic procedure that allows confidence to be restored and improves the personal image, is a reality that is achieved with dental veneers.

Dental veneers are the aesthetic option to improve the appearance of teeth. These are made of a thin material – such as porcelain or composite resin – and are placed on the existing tooth surface to improve shape, size, color, and alignment. In other words, they cover and protect the tooth; they do not replace it.

Porcelain veneers vs. composite resin veneers

Dental Veneers

There are two types of dental veneers, depending on the material they are made of porcelain and composite resin:

● Porcelain veneers are the most popular as they offer a longer lifespan and are more natural looking. They are made to fit the person’s teeth in a dental laboratory and are attached to the teeth with a special cement.

● Composite resin veneers have a shorter lifespan than porcelain veneers. They are cheaper and can be placed in a single session. This type of veneer is molded directly onto the tooth and hardens under ultraviolet light.

Dental aesthetics has made significant progress in recent years, with new techniques that restore oral health and improve dental appearance with effective, less invasive procedures. Digital technologies such as intraoral scanning and 3D printing make it easier to plan and design the required procedures accurately. In other words, new technologies make it easier to project what the result will be after treatment and thus identify the appropriate therapeutic plan for each person.

A trend-setting concept in this field entails less invasive dental aesthetics, with satisfactory results and minimal tissue damage. For example, dental microabrasion uses soft, abrasive materials to remove surface stains from teeth, while microdentistry uses precise techniques to correct small defects in teeth, without the need for their removal.
