Cosmetic Porcelain Veneers & Composite Bonding
Are you embarrassed about your smile? Our Shanti Dentals dentists can make cosmetic improvements with dental veneers made of strong, wafer-thin porcelain. In many cases, they can achieve similar cosmetic changes with tooth-coloured composite bonding that is lower cost, but not as long-lasting.
Shanti Dentals offers completely personalized treatment that will meet your goals of a healthy, beautiful smile. She or he will be delighted to explore with you which type of treatment would be optimal to meet your goals.
Transform Your Smile with Porcelain Veneers
Dental veneers make your teeth stronger and can last more than a decade when treatment is performed by an expert. In as less as two treatment appointments, you will be walking away with a beautiful, stunning smile.
Porcelain veneers can be applied to cover deep spots and renew the appearance of your smile with the look of natural, strong, sparkling tooth enamel. Because the shape of each veneer is customized, they can be used to close slight gaps in teeth and to make teeth more symmetrical in shape and size. Because they protect and strengthen teeth, they will eliminate the tooth sensitivity you may have been experiencing due to erosion or natural low-mineralization of your enamel. Typically, a set of veneers is applied to cover and meet the shape of your upper middle teeth that show as you smile. Your treatment may involve fewer or more teeth, depending on your smile, the condition of your teeth, and the objectives of your treatment. Porcelain veneers are sometimes applied to the front of the lower arch of teeth, but this is not always needed to obtain a naturally beautiful smile.
Each veneer is a custom-made shell of tooth-coloured porcelain cemented to the front of a tooth. It has the transparency and sparkle of good natural enamel. Our Shanti Dentals Dentists have expertise in colour-matching veneers for the shade of white you desire. Your other teeth can be safely bleached to a lighter shade or be treated with a thin application of composite to achieve a matched, perfectly colour-blended smile.
Composite Bonding
Dental bonding is also a very simple treatment for changing the shape and colour of teeth. The composite resin material that is used in dental fillings can be applied to a tooth’s surface, sculpted, smoothed, and hardened with a special light that “bonds” the resin to the tooth. Composite bonding can be applied to improve the shape of a tooth. It can be used to change the colour of a tooth and mask deep stains. As in the case of porcelain veneers, your Smile Makeover dentist will use extreme care in selecting the right shade of composite to blend beautifully in your smile. Cosmetic bonding is an easy, comparatively fast and economical procedure. But, it is not as long-lasting as porcelain veneers.
