VENEERS

Veneers are steadily gaining in popularity - not least because they are used by people in the public eye. A flawless tooth smile through a veneer correction, also without grinding the tooth, has achieved a breakthrough of this method in aesthetic dental therapy. In this way, the stability of aged, filled and worn teeth can be restored by the procedure.

The English word "veneer" stands for facade and that is exactly what the thin shells made of tooth-colored ceramic, which are attached directly to the tooth surface using a special adhesive technique. A new facade is thus created in which significantly less healthy substance of the own teeth has to be removed in comparison to a correction with a dental crown in order to prepare the tooth.

Who are Veneers Suitable for and How is the Treatment Performed?

Optimizing the aesthetics of teeth using veneers can be a suitable method in the case of tooth discolouration, tooth enamel malformations, large visible tooth fillings and also teeth that have been damaged in an accident and have small gaps. The thin ceramic shells can also be used to improve the shape of a tooth and for slight misalignments.
