Ultra-thin ceramic veneers for a harmonious, natural-looking smile.
Dental veneers are thin ceramic shells custom-made to cover the front surface of the teeth. They allow us to refine color, shape and proportions with a minimally invasive approach, often without anesthesia and with little or no removal of tooth structure.
Veneers are an excellent choice for discolored teeth that do not respond to whitening, small chips and fractures, gaps between teeth or mildly worn anterior teeth. They are not a treatment for severe misalignment, where orthodontics is the first option.
The process usually takes three appointments over two to three weeks. We start with a digital smile design, where we share a preview of the expected result. Then we prepare the teeth, take a precise scan and apply temporary veneers. Once the master ceramist has crafted the final veneers, they are bonded with a strong adhesive protocol.
At DentalIA we work with experienced ceramists who layer the porcelain to mimic natural translucency and surface texture. With proper hygiene and protection from heavy biting forces, modern veneers can last fifteen years or more.
No. Modern veneers usually require only a very thin layer of enamel reduction, and in selected cases none at all.
Once enamel is removed, the change is permanent. Whenever possible we use ultra-conservative or no-prep protocols, but you should consider veneers a long-term commitment.
Ceramic does not absorb pigments the way enamel does, so veneers are highly stain-resistant. The natural teeth around them can still change color over time.
With good hygiene and a night guard if you grind your teeth, veneers regularly last fifteen years or more.
