Tooth veneers - what are they?

To begin with, let's answer the question of what veneers are. You can use them in many cases - when your teeth are crooked, when you want to change their shape or even their colour. How is this possible? A veneer is simply a thin layer of porcelain or composite. It will be bonded to your own tooth.

Veneers that are well made look really fantastic! Our patients always leave the practice very satisfied. The smiles look like they're from a top Hollywood production - but that's not their only advantage.

Preparation of teeth for treatment

Before veneers can be fitted, it is necessary to repair any cavity, even the smallest one, in the mouth. The teeth must be perfectly healthy. And with veneers in place, these will not break down once again. After all, veneers act like armour!

Dreaming of veneers? This is what you need to remember! 

Veneers are first and foremost a lifelong decision, because in order to have them fitted, it is necessary to remove the natural layer of enamel from your teeth. This process is no longer renewable. What's more, once fitted, veneers will not look beautiful for the rest of your life. It is a long time - about 10 or 15 years - but you still have to reckon with the fact that the time will come to get them corrected.

When are you not allowed to wear veneers?

The second contraindication is bruxismThe unconscious grinding of teeth. You can read more about this disorder, and how to treat it, here: "Bruxism, or teeth grinding - where does it come from and how to get rid of it?".
