Ceramic veneers

Ceramic veneers are a popular cosmetic dentistry option used to improve the appearance of teeth that may be discolored, uneven, damaged or have unsightly gaps. They provide a long-lasting and natural enhancement to your smile, which is an alternative to more invasive methods such as dental crowns.

If you are experiencing problems with discoloration, unevenness, damage to your teeth or unsightly gaps between them, we invite you to Your Med Medical Centre, where we can restore your smile to perfection with ceramic veneers.

Ceramic veneers are thin porcelain plates that are permanently attached to the front surface of the teeth to create a shiny, even and aesthetically pleasing smile. They are an effective way to achieve the perfect look for your teeth, hiding imperfections and providing greater stain resistance than natural enamel.

The procedure for placing ceramic veneers begins with a consultation with a dentist who assesses the patient’s oral health and aesthetic expectations. Then the teeth are prepared by gently grinding their surface, which is necessary for the veneers to fit properly. After the teeth are prepared, measurements and impressions are taken and sent to the laboratory, where individual veneers are created.

The process of creating veneers usually takes 1 to 2 weeks. During your next visit, the veneers are tried on your teeth and then fixed permanently. The procedure is completed with final adjustments and polishing of the veneers to ensure the best possible aesthetic appearance and comfort. Repeated visits are recommended to monitor the condition of the veneers and oral health in general.

• Discolored teeth: Ideal for those who have severely discolored teeth that cannot be whitened.
• Minor damage and irregularities: For those who have cracks, chips or minor irregularities and want to restore their teeth to their natural appearance.
• Reshaping and resizing teeth: Great for people who are unhappy with the shape or size of their teeth.
• Diastema closure: For people who want to close unsightly gaps between their teeth.

• Gum disease: Patients with active gum disease, such as inflammation or advanced periodontitis, should first treat these conditions before having veneers placed.
• Weak tooth enamel: Teeth with very thin or damaged enamel may not be able to withstand the grinding that is required before veneers are placed.
• Bruxism: people who suffer from bruxism (teeth grinding) can damage veneers due to excessive pressure.
• Insufficient oral hygiene: Poor oral care can shorten the life of veneers and lead to gum problems.
