Celebrities and influencers smile and shine on the red carpet with their perfect teeth. The secret of these attractive smiles is often a set of what we call dental veneers. As we know, most people increase their physical appeal through their face, so teeth play a very important role. Having white teeth is a sign of good health and makes someone look younger, happier and more attractive.<\/p>\n
What are dental veneers?<\/strong><\/p>\n Dental veneers are very thin composite or porcelain coatings, like a contact lens, that are bonded to the teeth with special cement. <\/strong><\/p>\n The most important feature of dental veneers is that they can give teeth a completely new shape and colour very quickly. Veneers can not only close gaps and change the anatomy of the teeth; they can also be an alternative to permanent teeth whitening.<\/p>\n The material of a cosmetic veneer is as translucent as the enamel of our teeth, so it can’t be distinguished from the original teeth with the naked eye.<\/strong><\/p>\n Types of dental veneers:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n 1.Composite veneers or direct dental veneers<\/strong><\/p>\n This type of veneers are placed directly on the teeth by the dentist at the clinic, there is no need to manufacture them in the dental laboratory. Veneers are instant and are made of a resin called composite. <\/strong>This procedure is suitable for very minor dental issues, for closing diastemas or for colour changes.<\/p>\n Advantages:<\/u><\/p>\n Disadvantages:<\/u><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2.Conventional porcelain dental veneers<\/strong><\/p>\n Conventional porcelain veneers are more attractive and durable than composite veneers, but they require anaesthesia and tooth drilling to insert them. <\/strong>The manufacturing process is more complex and more appointments are needed due to the fact that they’re made by a dental laboratory, with the consequent increase in cost.<\/p>\n Advantages:<\/u><\/p>\n Disadvantages:<\/u><\/p>\n\n
