Cosmetic Dentistry Veneers
Veneers are one of the more recent developments in cosmetic dentistry . Whilst in the past crowns were the method of choice in cosmetic dentistry for fixing various teeth irregularities, veneers are now seen as the better option.
Why are veneers now more popular in cosmetic dentistry than crowns? Veneers offer several advantages over crowns when it comes to cosmetic dentistry :
- They do not stain – Veneers are made up of either plastic or porcelain which are both extremely stain resistant. This suits individuals whose consumption habits include tea, coffee, red wine and tobacco products.
- Veneers create a tooth-like appearance - They have a more natural, aesthetic look than crowns
- Not much of the tooth is required to be removed for the dental veneer procedure
- Dental veneers typically cost less than crowns
- Little or no anesthesia is required
- Dental veneers are strong and durable, lasting between ten and fifteen years
