Aesthetic dental veneers are thin sheets made of ceramic or composite, designed to cover the external surface of the front teeth of the upper and/or lower arch. This treatment allows you to improve the appearance of the smile, correcting defects in the shape, color, length and position of the natural teeth.
In addition to masking imperfections, veneers can give an intense and long-lasting white, making your teeth shine like never before.
When to choose aesthetic dental veneers
Veneers are particularly suitable in the following cases:
- Yellowed or stained teeth that do not respond to traditional whitening
- Chipped or worn teeth
- Irregular spaces between teeth (diastema)
- Inconsistent tooth shape or length
- Slight dental malpositions
Types of dental veneers
Ceramic veneers
Made to measure in the laboratory, they are very resistant and guarantee a natural appearance thanks to their translucency. They last longer than composite veneers.
Composite veneers
Applied directly by the dentist in a single session, they are less expensive but may require adjustments over time. Ideal for quick and minimally invasive corrections.
How the veneers are applied
- Smile evaluation and study visit
- Minimal or no preparation of the natural tooth
- Impression or digital scan for the creation of the veneer
- Testing and cementing with specific adhesives
