Veneers are thin and can be made of ceramic or composite material. We attach them only to the front surface of the teeth. They serve to improve the aesthetics of the smile and cover defects such as stains, small cracks, unevenness, or minor cavities. They give patients a natural and harmonious appearance without the need for extensive preparation.
There are two main types of veneers: ceramic and composite. Ceramic veneers are more durable, longer lasting, and more closely resemble the natural structure of the tooth. Composite veneers are made directly in the dental office, making them a faster and cheaper option. However, they have a shorter lifespan and may wear out more quickly. The choice of type depends on the patient’s requirements and the dentist’s recommendation.
We recommend them if the tooth is aesthetically impaired by discoloration, minor cracks, or minor irregularities. They are not suitable for severely damaged or missing teeth, where other replacements, such as crowns, are more appropriate. Properly selected veneers can transform a smile and boost a patient’s self-confidence.
Veneers are applied gently and usually require only minimal tooth grinding. After consultation and shade selection, the dentist precisely adapts the veneer to the shape of the tooth and bonds it firmly in place. The entire process is quick and painless, and the final result looks very natural.
Patients must maintain regular hygiene, just as they would with natural teeth. We recommend cleaning with a toothbrush and toothpaste, using interdental brushes, and regular check-ups with a dentist and dental hygienist. Proper care prolongs the life of veneers and maintains their beautiful appearance for many years.
Ceramic/zirconium crown/veneers
A ceramic or zirconia crown is a permanent replacement for part of a tooth that protects a weakened or damaged tooth and restores its shape, function, and aesthetics. The crown is precisely prepared and fitted onto the tooth so that it fits perfectly. Materials such as ceramic or zirconia ensure a natural appearance, strength, and long life.
