Veneers – also called laminates – are thin shells of porcelain or composite bonded to the front surface of your teeth. They cover chips, stains, gaps and uneven shapes, giving a bright, uniform smile. Patients choose our dental clinic in Krishna Nagar for veneers that look natural, not artificial.
Porcelain veneers are made in a lab and are highly stain-resistant and long-lasting. Composite veneers are built directly on the tooth in one visit and cost less. Dr Mani explains which suits your teeth and goals.
Veneers suit adults with healthy teeth and gums who want to improve the look of their front teeth.
Deep or internal stains, including those from medicines or fluorosis, can be covered completely with veneers for a bright, even shade.
Veneers rebuild chipped or uneven front teeth, restoring a smooth, natural edge and protecting the tooth from further damage.
Small spaces between front teeth can be closed with veneers in a few visits, without months of orthodontic treatment.
Teeth that are worn, short or irregular in shape can be lengthened and evened out to create a balanced smile line.
Mildly misaligned teeth can be made to look straight with veneers, though aligners may be advised first for larger corrections.
Discoloured or chipped composite bonding can be replaced with porcelain veneers for a longer-lasting, stain-resistant result.
Porcelain veneers usually take two to three visits. Composite veneers can often be done in one.
