Dental Veneers

About

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted from materials like porcelain or composite resin. They are bonded to the front surface of teeth to address cosmetic issues such as gaps, chips, and discoloration, providing a natural appearance. Veneers are often used to enhance the smile by concealing imperfections and improving the overall aesthetic appeal of the teeth. The process of applying veneers typically involves tooth preparation, where a small amount of enamel is removed to ensure a seamless fit. Impressions are taken to create the veneers, which are then bonded to the teeth using dental cement. Porcelain veneers are known for their durability and stain resistance, while composite veneers are more cost-effective and can be applied quickly. Proper care and maintenance are crucial for extending the lifespan of veneers, which can last for many years with good oral hygiene practices.
