Veneers

Veneer is a thin layer of porcelain or Composite which can cover face of the front teeth. Veneers are conservative and minimally invasive restoration which only replace the enamel of the affected tooth.

-Porcelain Veneers are indirect restorations which means they are custom crafted and need to be made in a dental laboratory after an impression is taken from the prepared tooth.

To ensure long lasting porcelain veneers a candidate for should have no grinding habit and subject teeth need to have no major decay or large previous restorations or fracture. If a tooth doesn’t meet any of the above essentials, porcelain Veneer is not a good restorative choice, and that tooth need to be restored with full porcelain crowns.

Bellow are the Indications for porcelain veneers: - To achieve a uniform and highly aesthetic smile - Discolored or stained teeth  -Misshapen an abnormal shape tooth   -To close gaps between the front teeth
