Cosmetic Dentistry - Veneers
Dental veneers were originally invented by a dentist in California, USA.
At the time the adhesive used was unsatisfactory and the veneers fell off after a short time.
These days, veneers have been highly modernized.
Using modern bonding adhesives, the can bond to teeth for 30 years..
Prior to dental veneers, one of the only ways to correct dental imperfections was to cover the tooth with a crown.
What is the definition of 'veneer'? It is defined as "a thin layer of a material bonded to the surface of a less attractive or inferior material".
Veneers in dentistry are very thin layers of artificial tooth (made either of porcelain or a resin composite) that are the natural color of your tooth and are placed on your tooth.
Nowadays, veneers as such are utilized to greatly enhance the look of the teeth and/or for the reparation or protection of damaged tooth surfaces.
Why would you need dental veneers? Unsightly gaps between your teeth, broken or chipped teeth, poorly shaped and crooked teeth; worn down uneven or misaligned teeth.
Veneers are also used to handle teeth that are permanently discolored or stained from the inside and outside, that are unable to be brought back to the natural color through professional teeth whitening.
As mentioned; veneers come in the form of porcelain or composite resin (hard plastic).
Your local dental expert can advise which option is best suited for you.
Veneers are highly resistant to the staining from coffee, tea, tobacco etc.
They can make your teeth look good and feel healthy; while giving you a new, better look.
Veneers have been given the 'thumbs-up' by dentists and patients, with accounts of peoples personal lives having changed for the better after veneers through new confidence - hiding teeth from other people is no longer an issue.
Even though dental veneers are in the realm of cosmetic dentistry, the procedure is relatively simple, fast, and straightforward that immensely improves one's looks, reinforce one's teeth, and may be exactly what you need to improve your look and smile.
