VENEERS
IMPROVE THE APPEARANCE OF YOUR TEETH WITH NATURAL-LOOKING VENEERS
Dental veneers are a cosmetic dental procedure that involves bonding a thin, custom-made shell to the front surface of one or more teeth. The shells are made of porcelain or composite resin and are designed to improve the appearance of teeth that are discoloured, stained, chipped, misaligned, or have gaps between them.
Dental veneer treatment usually requires one (composite veneers) to three (porcelain veneers) trips to the dentist depending upon which type of veneer treatment your dentist finds suitable for your teeth.
After your treatment you should brush and floss just as you would your regular teeth. Proper daily brushing, and use of non-abrasive fluoride toothpaste. Consider limiting coffee and other stain-inducing foods.
Porcelain Vs Composite Veneers
Porcelain and composite veneers are two of the most popular options for improving the appearance of your teeth. Both have their own unique advantages and disadvantages.
Benefits of Porcelain Veneers:
Durability: porcelain veneers are highly resistant to staining, chipping, and wear. They can last for many years with proper care and maintenance.
Aesthetics: porcelain veneers are designed to look very similar to natural teeth. They reflect light in a similar way to tooth enamel, creating a natural and lifelike appearance.
Strength: porcelain veneers are very strong, and they can be used to correct a variety of cosmetic dental problems, including chips, cracks, gaps, and misalignment.
Benefits of Composite Veneers:
Cost: composite veneers are less expensive than porcelain veneers.
Reversibility: If you change your mind about the appearance of your composite veneers, they can be removed and replaced without causing any harm to your natural teeth.
Quick treatment time: composite veneers can be placed in a single office visit, while porcelain veneers typically require two or more appointments.

Composite Veneers
Composite veneers are a cosmetic dental treatment that improves the appearance of a person’s teeth. They are made of a composite resin material, which is a mixture of plastic and glass particles. This material can be molded and shaped to match the color and contours of a person’s natural teeth, providing a natural-looking solution to a range of cosmetic dental problems.
Composite veneers are typically used to treat issues such as stained or discoloured teeth, gaps between teeth, chipped or broken teeth, and misaligned or misshapen teeth. The procedure involves removing a small amount of tooth enamel, which is then covered with a thin layer of composite material. This layer is then molded and shaped to match the surrounding teeth, and is then cured with a special light and can usually be done in one appointment by your dentist.
PORCELAIN VENEERS
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are custom-made to fit over the front surface of a person’s teeth. They are commonly used to improve the appearance of teeth that are discoloured, stained, chipped, misaligned, or have gaps between them. Veneers are bonded to the front of the existing teeth to create a natural-looking, uniform appearance.
The procedure for getting Porcelain veneers typically involves two to three appointments. During the first appointment, the dentist will examine the patient’s teeth to determine if porcelain veneers are an appropriate solution. If so, the dentist will prepare the teeth by removing a small amount of enamel, which is the outer layer of the tooth. This is necessary to make room for the veneers and to ensure that they will not appear too bulky or unnatural.
After the teeth have been prepared, your dentist will make an impression of the teeth and send it to a dental laboratory where the veneers will be custom-made. The dentist may also place temporary veneers on the patient’s teeth to protect them until the permanent veneers are ready.
