Dental Veneers or tooth veneers are thin shells of porcelain or dental composites bonded permanently on the front surface of your teeth to give you a well-aligned, bright, radiating and natural-looking smile.
Veneers are a cosmetic treatments that helps correct your teeth’ size, shape, colour, structure, and minor alignment issues.
At Hortman Clinics, We offer the Best Veneers in Dubai like Composite, Porcelain, Emax & Ceramic Veneer to get the perfect Hollywood smile that you desire.
Composite veneers are made from composite and blend well with your natural tooth colour. However, since they are similar to tooth fillings, they are not as durable as other veneers and tend to stain or chip off.
Aesthetically pleasing, durable and long-lasting –porcelain veneers are a crowd favourite for dentists and their patients. They offer the most natural-looking appearance and enhance the appearance of your teeth and smile.
These veneers are fabricated using ceramic and can be fixed on your teeth without drilling or injections. These are thinner than porcelain veneers but need the utmost amount of care.
These are types of porcelain veneers but are lighter and thinner than the traditional ones. They have high durability and are known to last for 20 years or more with appropriate care.
After the initial consultation appointments, the procedure to get Dental Veneers begins and can be broadly divided into three phases:
During the preparatory phase, the dentist will take measurements of your teeth. Next, a very thin enamel layer is trimmed (usually under local anaesthesia for people with sensitive teeth) to make space for your veneers.
Next, a second and third set of impressions are made. While one of these sets is used to fabricate temporary veneers for the next few days, the other one is sent to a dental laboratory to fabricate your veneers.
Before your lab sends the final veneers, they will typically send a ‘mock-up’ or ‘try-on’ to allow your dentist and you to try the veneers and evaluate how the final result may be.
At Hortman Clinics, our cosmetic dentists use smile design software and other tools to visualise and craft your smile before the lab fabricates it.
Changes and alterations can be made and communicated to the laboratory during the mock-up phase.
The third and final phase of your veneer treatment is the day you have been waiting for! The dental laboratory takes a couple of days to fabricate your porcelain veneers. When your veneers are ready, your dentist will test and make final adjustments.
Once you approve them, your veneers are bonded to the teeth permanently using a superior quality dental adhesive.
Once your Dental Veneers are bonded, your dentist will give you post-care instructions. Since the procedure is minimally-invasive, you will be able to return to your daily activities immediately.
You will be asked to avoid drinking water or eating anything for at least one hour after the veneers have been bonded.
Your dentist may call you for a follow-up procedure three to five days after the procedure to see how you are doing.
Your dentist will discuss your veneers’ shape, length, colour, and width and ensure the final set blends naturally with your existing teeth.
Towards the end of this appointment, your dentist will fix the temporary veneers on your teeth so that you can return to your routine without feeling conscious.
If you have any issues concerning your Dental Veneers, visit your dentist immediately.
