The application of dental veneers is one of the most common and efficient treatments in cosmetic dentistry. Veneers are thin veneers or sheets shaped to look the same as the natural surface of a tooth. They are used to fix the crooked or misshaped, discoloured, uneven or chipped teeth. This is called the process of dental bonding to improve the appearances of those certain teeth and to perfect the whole smile that outcomes. Various kinds of veneers are in existence, but Dental Centre’s experts consider the use of porcelain veneers, which have long-term reliability, is the most suitable material for this aim.
Some of the different veneer types you can find are:
Composite veneers: composite resin veneers, often referred to as composite veneers, are a cheap veneer tooth restoration that can be applied at a single dentist appointment. They are generally made of resin or plastic, which can be easily fixed if broken and have a durability of up to seven years. The period then involves applying composite layers to your teeth to be moulded to fit the shape and length you want. Your dentist will harden the layers pleasant it is worth noting that it can be easily chipped, broken or stained.
Are they expensive?
unlike porcelain or crowns, composite veneers are perfect for those who want a fast and affordable treatment. But they are not a very good choice for those who avoid returning to the dentist when a repair is required. Composites are often seen as rapid solutions for smaller problems like chipped teeth or discolouration.
Palatal Veneers: This special kinds of dental veneers are slightly different as they focused on the inner surface of your teeth. They are applied to the back rather than placed on the front surface of the teeth. So, why is this done? Supports the palate surface by strengthening your teeth from behind instead of covering their front-facing surfaces. There are also porcelain or composite ones of the palatal veneers usually made of gold. Palatal veneers protect the back of worn and sensitive teeth from being worn to prevent further wear and strengthen them. If not timely and efficiently noticed, the edges of the affected teeth can cause breaks, which will lead to shortening of your crowns, which is an irreparable condition.
Lumineer Veneers: Lumineers also known as ‘unprepared veneers’, are made from a patented material called as ‘e-max’. They are exceedingly thin but durable veneers. This treatment is a pain-free process without needles and drilling and doesn’t require anaesthesia and also it is completed only in two appointments. They have twenty years of durability and high resistance potential and re often used to hide discolouration in your teeth or to close gaps. Lumineer veneers have durability as long as normal porcelain veneers, but there is a difference between them that this procedure can be reversed if the patient later changes his-her mind. The material of lumineer is absolutely quite hard to wear, although they may see fragile. Lumineers cost much lower than you think compared to the cost of porcelain veneers. Because lumineers are such ultra-thin tooth reduction is rarely needed during the procedure. Also, there have been problems with these special veneers being splitted of the teeth after the application or being thin enough to cause the colour of the darker tooth beneath them to appear.
Porcelain Veneers: Made of very qualified hardened ceramics, such tooth veneers are everyone’s oldest favourites. However, that doesn’t mean that perfection cannot be progressed. Porcelain veneers have been available for decades with fuller older looks and a whitening function. Today, porcelain veneers still function as teeth whitening for people who have not received good results for their stained teeth from real teeth whitening or bleaching processes. The treatment is composed of fine porcelain pieces pasted to your teeth to bring back their old natural white appearance. This procedure, which is a reflection of your natural tooth enamel, helps to strengthen your teeth. Thanks to the wonderful advances in cosmetic dentistry, the possible shaping, sculpting and colour treatments for porcelain, have evolved to the point where it is impossible to distinguish them from the real ones. Porcelain, which can be durable around twenty years, is exceedingly strong even if it is used in cosmetic dentistry in a very thin form and probably does not require you to visit a dentist soon. The only serious disadvantage of porcelain veneers, which are much less likely to be stained or broken, is that the underlying tooth needs to be reshaped before the application and there is no return of this process. However, our Dental Centre team believes that porcelain always produces the best results with its outstanding durability and excellent natural looking.
Three Day Express Veneers:
Express Veneers: At our Dental Centre, we developed a treatment plan lasting only three days to fulfil these wishes for our patients who want to reach their dream smiles as soon as possible.

No-prep Veneers: unprepared veneers, similar to the traditional veneers, are placed to the surface of the tooth to increase the aesthetics of your teeth. Although they have similarities, the main difference between them is that they do not require majör changes in the application of unprepared veneers to the natural teeth.
