Composite veneers, also known as Composite bonding, are applied directly onto a patients teeth, as opposed to being made in a laboratory and cemented on like porcelain veneers. A Composite veneer is effective in changing the colour, shape, and size of a tooth. To achieve excellent results, Composite veneers are technically and artistically very demanding. Patients should always ensure that the provider has enough experience in doing this treatment. One of the best ways to assess this is by looking at photos of their previous work.
Composite veneers are suitable for a variety of situations, such as:
Damaged teeth – Often, composite bonding is the cheapest and easiest way to repair a damaged tooth. At Pearl Dental Clinic, we have a good record of achieving an aesthetically pleasing result without the restoration being noticeable.
Stained/Crooked teeth – If teeth whitening has been unsuccessful Composite bonding can be used to cover undesirable stains, white patches, and discoulouration of the teeth.
Composite veneers can also be used to reduce or fully correct the misalignment of crooked teeth. However, this method is not always the best choice. They can be most suitable in situations where there is a high risk of veneer fracture, as Composites are repairable directly in the mouth. This is one of the biggest advantages of Composite veneers over any other form of veneers.
Closing gaps – Composite veneers can be the ideal choice of treatment. The difficulty in these situations is matching the shade and making the composite veneer unnoticeable. A tooth gap closure requires no tooth removal.
Composite veneers are mostly monochromatic, and aesthetically they are not as good as Porcelain veneers. Therefore they are not always the best option for a full smile makeover. Different types of porcelain veneers are available, such as highly aesthetic, durable, ultra-thin or more cost-effective options.
