Porcelain Dental Veneers in Lucknow

What are Veneers?

Want to get a smile makeover or cover gaps in front teeth or chipped or broken teeth then Dental Veneers can help you get a perfect smile.

Abnormal wear and tear or trauma to front teeth can cause chipping of teeth or appearance of cracks. Dental veneers are aesthetic covers placed on teeth to restore your natural smile. The teeth are prepared and then a dental veneer is placed to restore your smile. People with minor smile corrections can opt for convenient dental veneers instead of lengthy orthodontic treatment.

Veneers are thin shells permanently bonded to the surfaces of teeth to improve their position, shape and shade, as well the overall aesthetics of a person’s smile. They are made of either composite resin or high-strength porcelain.

Dental veneers are a cosmetic solution to a variety of scenarios, including:

1. Aged veneers needing replacement

2. Spaces between teeth

3. Broken, crooked or badly chipped or worn teeth

4. Permanently stained or discolored teeth

The Procedure of Dental Veneer?

Composite veneers require just one visit. First your dentist assesses your tooth to check that there is enough natural tooth to accept the restoration. The underlying tooth is prepared, if necessary, so the veneer will adhere, though composite veneers require very little of your tooth to be sacrificed in the treatment process.

Next white filling material is applied in layers and then hardened with a ‘Blue phase’ LED light. This process is then repeated until the desired length, width and shade are achieved. Now-a-days the latest imported readymade composite veneers are available which are customized by dentist as per the need of case.

For porcelain veneers your dentist assesses your tooth to check that there is enough natural tooth to accept the restoration. Next, your tooth is prepared by shaving back a thin layer to provide a surface for the porcelain to adhere to. Then, a temporary veneer is prepared and placed over the tooth while your porcelain veneer is created. Later your new porcelain veneer will replace the temporary one, and after being tried to check that it is a perfect fit, it will be permanently attached.

Porcelain or Composite Veneer?

Porcelain (or ceramic) veneers are fabricated facings bonded to the front surfaces of the teeth. They are highly durable and resistant to staining and chipping. Porcelain veneers are excellent for moderate to major changes in tooth shape and texture and can be made to resemble the look of a natural tooth very closely.

his type of veneer is usually manufactured by a technician in a dental laboratory and fitted by your dentist.

Composite resin (or “plastic”) veneers can be applied to the front teeth to make small to moderate changes in shape.

They are useful to reshape teeth, to repair small fractures or to close gaps between teeth. The material used is tooth colored and moderately durable.

These veneers can be made and fitted during one visit to your dentist, being manufactured in-house without the involvement of a laboratory.

Your dental practitioner will advise you of any special care requirements for your new restorations, also any follow-up appointments that may be necessary to check your progress.
