Dental veneers are very thin covers that are put on top of your natural teeth to change the shape, size and color of the teeth. The material is shaped to bond to the front of your teeth, and as a result, enhances the shape and colour of teeth, to close gaps and improve alignment. Veneers can also be used to lengthen worn or short teeth. The overall purpose for veneers is to improve the appearance of a person’s smile to make them appear younger, healthier and more attractive.
With the latest technology in dentistry, veneers can be made to look exactly like natural tooth enamel and are often used to create custom smiles.
The most common materials used for making veneers are composite and porcelain (also called ceramic veneers).
Porcelain is the most popular material at ArtSmiles. It gives a natural long-lasting look, which matches your natural teeth colour. It is highly resistant to staining and discolouring, which makes it better than other materials.
