Veneers are among the most transformative treatments in modern aesthetic dentistry. If you have ever admired a perfect celebrity smile, there is a good chance veneers were involved. Here is how they work and who they are for.
What are veneers? A veneer is a very thin shell of porcelain or composite material that is bonded to the front surface of a tooth. It corrects the color, shape and small imperfections of the tooth while keeping a completely natural appearance.
What veneers can correct:
Permanently discolored teeth that do not respond to whitening
Chipped or worn edges
Small gaps between front teeth
Slightly crooked or uneven front teeth
Teeth that look too short or too small
Porcelain or composite? Porcelain veneers are made in a laboratory, offer superb translucency like natural enamel and resist stains for many years. Composite veneers are built directly on the tooth in a single visit and cost less, with a somewhat shorter lifespan. At your consultation at Mea Dent we explain both options honestly and help you choose.
The process. First we examine your teeth and discuss the smile you want. We prepare the teeth very conservatively, take precise impressions and select the ideal shade together. At the final visit the veneers are bonded permanently and adjusted until they feel completely natural.
How long do they last? With good hygiene and regular checkups, porcelain veneers typically last ten years or more.
