Dental veneers and its treatment
- Composite veneers procedure: This is similar to bonding, but has better affect when compared to bonding. If the dentist is performing composite resin veneers treatment then composite resin is applied to your tooth surface. After that a light is used to harden the resin. Once it is hardened, polishing is done. Now teeth look more natural and smooth.
- Porcelain veneers procedure: If dentist performs porcelain veneers treatment during the first visit, dentist will give you anesthesia and removes the enamel from teeth which will leave place for veneers. Now to make porcelain veneers, a mold is used and temporary are placed in the place of removed enamel. During the second treatment the dentist removes the temporary veneers after that he will put some chemical on the tooth surface to make it rough. Finally porcelain veneers are attached to your teeth by using composite resin cement.
People treated with dental veneers treatment have long lasting and healthy teeth with natural look.
