Veneers
Dental
veneers or dental
ceramic
laminates, are very thin shells of
ceramic
which are bonded onto the front side of teeth so to improve their
appearance.
Ceramic
veneers are particularly indicated for teeth that are discolored,
worn, chipped, or misaligned.
They will help to reestablish a harmonic face.
Not
only the position of the tooth but also its shape and colour can be
improved by means of a slight ceramic veneer. A very small amount of
tooth enamel is shaved off.
Ceramic
veneers create a very life-like tooth appearance.
Ceramic
veneers, because they
are glass-like, have a great advantage by the fact that they are
translucent. When they are bonded onto a tooth's surface (with an
imperceptible and inseparable composite) they mimic the light handling
characteristics of enamel
.
The
restored tooth will have such a totally natural appearance that it
will undistinguishable from the other teeth.
