Composite veneers, like composite bonding, involve directly applying a composite resin material to the tooth in thin layers to achieve the desired size, shape, and colour.
Patients who hate their stained, crooked, gapped or damaged teeth will be pleased to discover composite veneers, which can be placed faster than their traditional counterparts.
Composite veneers look just like your teeth but better. Patients worried about thickness should not be concerned, as the resin is built in thin layers to achieve the desired final look. Plus, composite veneers can feel like natural teeth with the right dentist.
Just like porcelain veneers, composite veneers treat a wide variety of smile problems and issues that include:
Following a consultation to assess your suitability, our dentists can begin to work on a trial smile (a mock-up), which will design your teeth on a cast model first based on the shape and design you like best.
After any modifications or amendments to the trial smile, we will add the composite veneers directly to your teeth, where we will shape, contour and polish them. Any teeth whitening treatment will need to be completed beforehand.
The minimally invasive technique applied with composite veneers is impossible in other veneers, like porcelain. With composite veneers, we don’t need to cover the entirety of the tooth fully, but rather only a portion where the imperfection is located. If, for example, you’re targeting discolouration, we might need to only apply the composite resin to the upper half of the teeth next to the gum. Learn more.
Lasting on average for five years, composite veneers do not change or affect the underlying structure of your tooth, making them a great temporary cosmetic enhancement for patients wanting to commit to life-long porcelain veneers.
As composite veneers are minimally invasive and make no permanent changes to teeth, they are considered a healthier option for the future of your oral health. Plus, they’re great for protecting the surface of the tooth.
As the composite resin material is built onto the tooth in thin layers, there’s no need to make room for them, like there is with porcelain veneers.
The beauty of composite veneers is that they are thin enough to fit seamlessly over teeth without having to remove any of the underlying tooth. Read post.
Composite veneers are completely safe – the resin material they are made from is inert, which will not cause you any harm. And as the application process is less invasive they are considered better for the teeth.
Pay only £175 per month for a full smile of composite veneers (six teeth) using 0% finance over 12 months.
Composite veneers are considerably less expensive than porcelain veneers because they last less and are constructed using composite resin rather than porcelain or ceramic.
A composite veneer on a single tooth costs only £350 per tooth, which is perfect for patients looking to enhance certain aspects of their smile without undergoing a smile makeover.
