Dental Veneers

These are thin layers of ceramic which are adhered to the teeth. It is a very conservative treatment, since there is minimal wear on the tooth surface.

When are they indicated?

In esthetic cases:

• Darkened teeth;

• Closing of diastemas (spaces between teeth);

• Over-restored teeth (with a lot of composites);

• Correcting the size of teeth;

• Teeth with pre-existing fractures.

In functional cases:

• Correct dental guides;
• Severely worn teeth.

What needs to be done?

1. Dental and gum treatments (periodontology);
2. First evaluation appointment with photographic records and radiographic analysis;
3. Molds for study and waxing up in the laboratory;
4. Mock-up consultation (real time visualization in the mouth of the possible final result);
5. Consultation for dental preparation and molds for the laboratory;
6. Consultation for placing the dental veneers;
7. Control appointments.
