Who it’s for:
Veneers are ideal for individuals seeking to correct cosmetic dental imperfections, such as chips, cracks, slight misalignments, gaps, or stubborn discoloration, while having healthy teeth and gums. Good candidates must have sufficient enamel, maintain good oral hygiene, and should not grind their teeth.
How the procedure works:
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells—usually porcelain or composite—bonded to the front of teeth to improve aesthetics, involving consultation, minimal enamel removal,, impressions, and bonding. The process typically takes 2–4 weeks over two main appointments, during which temporary veneers may be used.
Comfort and safety
Dental veneers are a popular, largely safe, and comfortable option for transforming smiles by correcting stains, chips, gaps, or minor misalignments. While traditional porcelain veneers require minor, irreversible removal of tooth enamel, they are durable (lasting 10-15 years) and, when placed by professionals, pose no risk of damaging teeth. For many, the long-term boost in confidence outweighs the minor, temporary sensitivity that can follow the procedure.
