What Are Veneers?
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. They include:
- Shells: Thin layers bonded to the front of teeth.
- Materials: Typically made from porcelain or composite resin for a natural look.
- Customization: Tailored to match the color and shape of your teeth.
Why Are Veneers Important?
- Enhance Aesthetics: Correct discoloration, chips, or gaps for a perfect smile.
- Boost Confidence: Improve self-esteem with a brighter, uniform smile.
- Protect Teeth: Provide a protective layer for damaged or worn enamel.
Types of Veneers
We offer various veneer types to suit your needs:
- Porcelain Veneers: Durable and stain-resistant for a natural appearance.
- Composite Veneers: More affordable, applied in a single visit.
- Lumineers: Ultra-thin veneers requiring minimal tooth preparation.
