Made from a thin layer of ceramic porcelain or composite resin material, veneers are thin, tooth-coloured facings that can both repair and enhance the aesthetic appeal of your mouth.
Used to repair cracks, chips, uneven shape, breakage or discolouring, porcelain veneers cover the front surface area of the teeth and can serve a functional as well as cosmetic purpose, by protecting the outer layer of a damaged tooth.
The process of receiving dental veneers can be relatively swift, however a couple of separate appointments may be required to fully complete treatment where porcelain veneers require specialist crafting.
Porcelain veneers are custom made according to the shape of your individual teeth, and as the material used is one which mirrors the natural colour and translucency of real teeth, your smile can be made to look more beautiful and completely natural. Porcelain has an intrinsic stain resistant quality, which allows for a long term ability to maintain beautiful, clear looking teeth and also provides a highly durable substitution in terms of the strength offered.
Composite veneers have the advantage of being immediately attainable, as they can be made in the dental chair, through the careful application of resin by Dr Khatri. This resin is applied and, once set with a curing light, can be shaped and polished to provide naturally beautiful teeth in just one visit.
Once the initial examination of your teeth has been conducted a suitable option in treatment method will be established, depending on your individual requirements. Colour and tone is considered, to ensure a natural and complimentary look. In both instances, there is a need for minimal removal of the outer tooth enamel, before the veneers are positioned.
Composite veneers offer a swift and inexpensive effective option in comparison to their porcelain counterparts, however the added benefits from porcelain can often be felt in their appearance, durability and stain resistant qualities.
