PORCELAIN VENNERS BRISBANE
Dental Veneers
Veneers offer patients the opportunity to improve the overall appearance of teeth and create a beautiful smile. Veneers have the ability to “dress-up” teeth and improve your smile. A natural looking smile is now achievable with veneers.
WHAT ARE VENEERS?
Veneers are thin porcelain or composite resin facings that are bonded to the front of teeth. They are between 0.3mm and 1mm thick and are often used as an alternative to crowns. They are extremely thin and in most cases require less of the natural tooth to be removed when compared to crowns. Veneers are strong and durable making them a popular cosmetic dental treatment for creating a beautiful smile.
There are two types of veneers – Porcelain and composite resin. Porcelain veneers are custom made and designed to be bonded to the front of the tooth and they look and feel natural. Composite resin are applied by the dentist layer by layer until the desired result is achieved and you get a toothlike look and feeling.
WHY I NEED VENEER?
Veneer can be the solution to a variety of dental problems. Some of these include:
But if you are grinding your teeth, veneers are not a good option for you. Because persistent grinding can chip and break the veneers. Your dentist will suggest making a splint to diagnose the grinding and check your bite. Veneers can be applied to one or more teeth to match in with existing teeth or all visible teeth can be veneered to change the overall colour and shape of teeth.
Types of Dental Veneers:
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are the most popular type of veneers due to their durability and natural appearance. They are made of a strong, durable material that mimics the look of natural teeth. Porcelain veneers can be customized to match the color and shape of your natural teeth, and they are resistant to staining.

Composite Veneers
Composite veneers are made of a tooth-colored resin that is applied directly to the surface of the tooth. They are a more affordable option than porcelain veneers and can be completed in one visit to the dentist. Composite veneers are a good choice for minor cosmetic issues, such as chips, cracks, or gaps between teeth.
