Veneers are ultra-thin shells made of porcelain or composite resin that are custom-designed to fit over the front surface of your natural teeth. These thin shells are meticulously crafted to resemble the appearance of natural teeth, providing a seamless and lifelike result. Veneers can be used to address a variety of cosmetic concerns, including discoloration, chips, cracks, gaps, and minor misalignment.

- Porcelain Veneers: Porcelain veneers are highly durable and stain-resistant, offering a natural-looking and long-lasting solution for enhancing your smile.
- Composite Resin Veneers: Composite veneers are made of a tooth-colored resin material that is applied directly to the teeth and sculpted to achieve the desired shape and appearance.
PROCEDURE
- Consultation: During your initial consultation, your dentist will evaluate your oral health, discuss your cosmetic goals, and determine if veneers are the right option for you.
- Treatment Planning: Your dentist will take impressions and photographs of your teeth to design custom veneers that complement your facial features and smile aesthetics.
- Preparation: A small amount of enamel will be removed from the front surface of your teeth to create space for the veneers and ensure a natural fit.
- Impressions: Impressions of your teeth will be taken and sent to a dental laboratory where your custom veneers will be fabricated.
- Temporary Veneers: While your permanent veneers are being created, temporary veneers may be placed to protect your teeth and maintain aesthetics.
- Placement: Once your permanent veneers are ready, your dentist will carefully bond them to the front surface of your teeth using a strong adhesive. Any necessary adjustments will be made to ensure a comfortable fit and natural appearance.
