Veneers are custom made for your teeth according to their shape, size, colour and alignment. They are usually placed on the front teeth for aesthetic correction of discolourations, gaps, crookedness or chipped corners of your front teeth. Veneers can be made of either porcelain or composite materials.
\nPorcelain veneers are longer lasting and stain-resistant when compared to composite veneers, but may be costlier. Porcelain veneers, if well taken care of, can last well up to 20 years hence are an excellent investment if you want to achieve your dream smile.
\nSpecial dental veneers that do not require any tooth material to be trimmed down are also available.

\nDental crowns are \u201ccaps\u201d or coverings that cover the entire tooth. They offer protection from attack by bacteria in the mouth, chemical agents like acids in food, and physical wear by abrasives. Crowns are made of different materials like metals, ceramic, porcelain or resin and hence can be used to treat gaps, discolourations, and alignment problems in the front teeth. Porcelain or ceramic crowns are suitable alternatives to veneers if you\u2019re looking for tooth-coloured restorations with a slightly lesser budget.
\nComposite fillings<\/strong>
\nComposite fillings utilize a tooth coloured material called composite to build up chipped or broken tooth structure. In comparison to veneers, they are a cost-effective treatment option for correcting front tooth defects since we can also match composite fillings to the colour of natural teeth. Composite bonding treatment involves building up the composite material to form tooth contours and setting the material in place using UV light.” font_size=”lg:18″][tm_spacer size=”lg:30″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” background_color=”secondary” lg_spacing=”padding_top:80;padding_bottom:80″][vc_column width=”1\/2″ offset=”vc_col-lg-6″][tm_heading custom_google_font=”” text_color=”custom” custom_text_color=”#ffffff” icon_type=”icomoon” icon_icomoon=”icomoon-chat-1″ icon_color=”primary” text=”What is the treatment process of Dental Veneers?<\/mark>” font_size=”lg:36″ icon_font_size=”lg:54″][tm_spacer size=”lg:20″][tm_heading tag=”div” custom_google_font=”” text_color=”primary” text=”Our dentist will examine your teeth first to check for any signs of gum disease, decay or a need for a root canal treatment (RCT). If any of these are present, you will not be suitable to get veneers. X-rays may also be taken to look for underlying problems with your teeth.
\nOnce you\u2019re cleared, your dentist will take trim down the front surface of your teeth (usually by 1 mm) and take an impression using a dental mould. This will take about 30 mins. We will then send your measurements to the lab for fabrication of the veneers.
\nAfter a week or two, we will recall you for your next appointment where we will fix the veneers to your teeth after evaluating its shape, size, colour and fit to match with your requirements. A thorough cleaning of your teeth will be done prior to attaching the veneers to ensure there is no bacterial residue beneath the veneers. After which, a strong dental adhesive will bond the veneers to your teeth and it will be set in place using UV light. We will complete the entire process in under 2 hours.” font_size=”lg:18″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]\t\t
