There are many people who, despite having apparently healthy teeth and no cavities, are not satisfied with their smile or find it appealing. If this is your case, you might want to find out more about dental veneers.
These are thin ceramic pieces, varying in thickness between 0.2 and 0.5 millimetres, which are applied over natural teeth to correct small imperfections. Veneers allow the shape, colour and/or size of the tooth to be altered in order to harmonise the smile. They are indicated in cases such as
- Fractured teeth;
- Stained or darkened teeth;
- Excessive spacing between teeth (diastemas);
- Teeth that are too short and/or narrow.
The procedure is so simple and non-invasive that it can be summarised in just 3 steps: the patient can preview the final result through a digital study (Digital Smile Design), a small wear is made on the surface of the tooth (when necessary) to prepare for the application of the veneer and, finally, it is fixed.
Don’t be misled: the veneer is thin and the procedure is simple, but its durability and resistance are incredible! If you follow all the precautions, dental veneers can last for years and years without any inconvenience, always maintaining the appearance of a natural smile.
