Composite Veneers

Understanding Composite Veneers

Composite veneers are a cosmetic treatment aimed at enhancing the size, color, shape, or alignment of teeth using conservative methods. Unlike some treatments such as dental crowns, composite veneers can be applied with minimal to no removal or shaving down of natural teeth, making them more conservative.

Advantages of Composite Veneers

One advantage of composite veneers is their conservative nature, preserving natural tooth structure. Other benefits include the ability to complete treatment in a single visit, as hand-built veneers often do not require lab work. Additionally, the procedure can often be performed without the use of anesthetic, ensuring a comfortable and pain-free experience.

Consultation and Customization

The process typically begins with a consultation, during which you discuss your concerns and desired outcomes with your dental professional. This ensures that your specific needs and desires are understood, allowing for a tailored smile makeover. Together with your dentist, you’ll select the ideal shade of composite resin for your veneers, matching your natural tooth color or opting for a whiter shade for a brighter appearance.

Safety comes first

You’re in good hands. You can expect to experience clean patient rooms with medical grade sterilization protocols.

Aesthetic and Natural Results

Composite resin provides an aesthetic yet natural-looking smile, mimicking the properties of natural tooth enamel. The process typically takes around 2-3 hours, depending on techniques used and the number of veneers applied.

Procedure Details

The procedure involves preparing the tooth surface for bonding the composite resin, followed by the custom creation of veneers to meet your specific needs. Thorough polishing of the veneers ensures a natural-looking finish with minimal staining.

Post-Procedure Care

Adhering to post-operative instructions and maintaining good oral hygiene is essential for preserving your new smile. Composite veneers offer the advantage of easy adjustments, touch-ups, or refreshers over time to keep your smile looking brand new.

Eligibility and Consultation

Composite veneers are suitable for most adults, considering current oral health. During the consultation, your dentist will assess the condition of your teeth and gums and recommend the best options to improve your oral health and enhance your smile through cosmetic procedures. If preserving your natural teeth while enhancing your smile appeals to you, composite veneers may be the ideal option.
