Veneers

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front of teeth to improve their appearance. They are used to address cosmetic issues such as:

• Discoloration or staining
• Chips or cracks
• Gaps or spacing issues
• Misshapen or uneven teeth
  Worn-down teeth

Types of veneers:

• Porcelain veneers: Made from ceramic materials, they are durable and long-lasting.
• Composite veneers: Made from resin materials, they are thinner and more affordable.

The procedure:

• Consultation and planning
• Preparation (shaping and cleaning the teeth)
• Impressions and fabrication
• Bonding (cementing the veneers to the teeth)

Benefits:

• Natural appearance
• Stain resistance
• Durability
• Long-lasting (10-20 years)
• Minimal tooth preparation

Note: Veneers are not suitable for teeth with significant decay, gum disease, or weakened structures. Your dentist will assess your teeth and recommend the best option for your specific needs.
