What are Composite Veneers?

Composite veneers are tooth-coloured resin restorations that are added to the front surface of the tooth in order to correct discolouration, minor misalignment, chips or cracks. They are also used to reduce gaps between teeth and build up worn teeth to restore a natural-looking smile.

The dentist prepares the tooth, which may require some buffing of the enamel surface, to allow for the thickness of the veneer to sit flush on the tooth’s surface. Composite resin veneers are applied layer at a time, shaped and cured by your dentist until the final result is achieved.

Can I get veneers?

Most people are suitable candidates for dental veneers but it must be remembered that it’s a cosmetic process, not an orthodontic solution. Veneers will not correct badly misaligned teeth, overbites or underbites.

Veneers also need healthy teeth on which to attach. Any decay or gum disease must be treated prior to the attachment of veneers.

If you suffer from teeth grinding, then veneers may not be a suitable option for you. Persistent teeth grinding can cause veneers to chip, break or even detach completely from the tooth.

Maintenance?

It’s all about maintaining consistent and effective oral hygiene. As advised, a visit to the dentist for a check-up and clean every 6months is important. Most importantly, only use your teeth for eating food – don’t chew pens, or rip open plastic bags with them, etc.

Have a realistic expectation

While veneers are a dramatic improvement to a number of dental problems, it’s important to remember that they are not natural teeth. Small imperfections, discolourations and variations can happen to all veneers over time.
