Composite veneers have a process of sticking tooth-coloured material to the surface of your teeth to change their shape, size and colour. They can also be used to strengthen tooth chips or fractures.
Composite edge bonding is where the composite is added to the edges of the tooth to make them look more symmetrical and repair small chips or imperfections in the teeth.
The process is generally totally reversible, as it does not require any drilling or filing of your natural teeth. Composite is also a very safe material with near zero chance of allergy or irritation in the mouth.
Composite veneers are a popular cosmetic dentistry option that offers several benefits, including:
Improved Smile Aesthetics: Composite veneers can significantly enhance the appearance of your smile. They are custom-made and bonded to the front surface of your teeth, covering up imperfections such as stains, discolouration, chips, cracks, and gaps, resulting in a brighter, more even, and more attractive smile.
Conservative Treatment: Unlike porcelain veneers, which require the removal of a significant amount of tooth enamel, composite veneers are a more conservative treatment. Minimal tooth reduction is needed, allowing for the preservation of more natural tooth structures, making them a more reversible and less invasive option.
Quick and Efficient Process: The process of getting composite veneers is usually quicker compared to porcelain veneers, as they can be applied directly to your teeth in a single visit to the dentist, without the need for multiple appointments or laboratory work. This makes composite veneers a convenient option for those seeking immediate results.
Customisable Results: Composite veneers are highly customisable, allowing your dentist to match the colour, shape, and size of the veneers to your natural teeth and facial features. This ensures that you achieve a natural-looking and harmonious smile that complements your overall appearance.
Durable and Stain-Resistant: Composite veneers are made from a durable and stain-resistant material that can withstand normal biting and chewing forces. They are less likely to chip or crack compared to porcelain veneers, and any minor damage can often be repaired without the need for replacement.
Versatility: Composite veneers can be used to address a wide range of cosmetic dental issues, including stained or discoloured teeth, chipped or fractured teeth, gaps between teeth, misaligned teeth, and worn-down teeth. They are a versatile option for smile makeovers and can be used to correct multiple cosmetic concerns in a single treatment.
Affordable: Composite veneers are generally more affordable than porcelain veneers, making them a cost-effective option for improving your smile without breaking the bank. They can provide significant cosmetic improvements at a more budget-friendly price point.
