What are the Types of Veneers? 

Porcelain Veneers 

They are custom-made to fit your teeth to perfection. Porcelain veneers are strong and durable, lasting up to 15 years. They have a natural-looking surface, and the procedure doesn’t involve removing a lot of enamel. Besides this, porcelain veneers do not stain easily. 

Composite Veneers 

They are made using dental-grade composite and are more affordable than the former. We bond them with your teeth using dental adhesive. 

How are Veneers Placed? 

• We will conduct your dental examination to check the shape, size, and length of your teeth. It also includes taking X-rays. 
• To prepare your teeth for veneer, we will reshape them. The process involves removing some amount of enamel. We may give you mild anesthesia to numb the area. After this, we will take impressions of your teeth and send them to the dental laboratory for the creation of veneers. While you wait for the permanent veneers, we will offer you temporary ones. 
• When your permanent veneers arrive, we will prepare your teeth by cleaning and polishing them. Using a dental gel, we will roughen the surface of your teeth so that the veneers bond strongly. After placing the veneers on your teeth, we will use a special light (curing light) to bond them to your teeth. 
• Finally, we will remove the excess adhesive used for the bonding process and make the required adjustments. Ensure to maintain proper oral hygiene and visit us for a regular dental check-up so that we check your restoration from time to time.
