About the Service
Dental veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve both appearance and durability. These shells effectively address several cosmetic concerns. One common issue is stained or discolored teeth that resist whitening, which veneers can successfully cover. Furthermore, chipped, cracked, or worn teeth—as well as gaps, minor misalignment, uneven shapes, and worn enamel—can also benefit from this treatment by restoring strength and appearance.
Types of Dental Veneers
Each type of dental veneers offers unique benefits depending on your dental needs and aesthetic goals.
| Type | Best For | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Porcelain Veneers | Most cosmetic cases | Highly durable, natural translucency | Requires enamel removal (~0.5mm) |
| Lumineers® | Minimal-prep cases | No drilling/no shots, reversible | Less stain-resistant, may appear opaque |
| Zirconia Veneers | Severely damaged teeth | Strongest option, ideal for structural issues | Thicker, requires more tooth reduction |
How Dental Veneers Work
Step 1: Consultation & Planning
Initially, your dentist will assess your tooth structure using digital scans and photographs to design your new smile.
In some cases, temporary veneers may be placed to give you a preview of the expected results.
Step 2: Tooth Preparation
-
For Porcelain/Zirconia: A small layer of enamel is removed.
-
For Lumineers: Minimal/no reduction needed.
-
Impressions sent to a dental lab (temporaries placed for 1–2 weeks).
Step 3: Bonding
Finally, the permanent veneers are carefully cemented onto your teeth using a UV light-activated resin.
Your dentist will then check your bite and polish the veneers to ensure maximum comfort and a natural appearance.
Step 4:Duration
The entire process typically takes 2 to 3 visits spaced 1 to 2 weeks apart.
Since local anesthesia is used during tooth preparation, you can resume normal eating as soon as the anesthesia wears off with no required downtime.
