What are Veneers?
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are placed on the front surface of your teeth. They’re designed to improve the color, shape, size, or length of your teeth, offering a simple and long-lasting way to enhance your smile.
There are two main types of veneers:
-
Porcelain veneers: Known for their durability and natural appearance, these are stain-resistant and can last over a decade with proper care.
-
Composite veneers: Made from tooth-colored resin, these are a more budget-friendly option and can often be applied in just one visit.
Why Choose Veneers?
Veneers are a popular choice for people who want to correct:
-
Discolored or stained teeth
-
Chipped or worn-down teeth
-
Small gaps between teeth
-
Slightly crooked or uneven teeth
-
Misshaped teeth
They offer a quick, comfortable, and highly effective solution for creating a uniform, radiant smile.
What’s the Process Like?
Getting veneers is usually a simple and smooth experience:
-
Consultation: Your dentist will assess your smile and discuss what you want to achieve.
-
Preparation: A tiny amount of enamel is gently removed to make space for the veneers.
-
Placement: The veneers are bonded to your teeth and adjusted for a perfect fit and feel.
The result? A natural-looking, confident smile that feels just like your own teeth—only better.
Caring for Your Veneers
Taking care of veneers is easy. Just treat them like your natural teeth:
-
Brush twice a day and floss daily
-
Avoid biting hard objects (like pens or ice)
-
Visit your dentist regularly for checkups and cleanings
