Benefits of dental veneers

If you want to fix your smile and get back to having perfect teeth, one of the best solutions available to you are veneers. Among its benefits we find the following:

Correct dental imperfections: thanks to them you will be able to eliminate imperfections in your teeth such as stains, fractures, gaps or wear.

Natural appearance : perfectly reproduces the shape, color and texture of the original teeth. As a result, you will not notice the difference.

Types of veneers

Depending on the type of teeth of each person, one type of veneer or another will be recommended. There are two different types, each with its advantages and disadvantages.

Composite veneers

When the repairs to be carried out are minor, for example, touch-ups on a single tooth or scratches, this type of veneer is the most commonly used. They are created by the dentist and are made of resin.

Among their advantages we can highlight their ease of reconstruction, the speed with which they are implanted, their lower cost, their simple restoration and the fact that they are very minimally invasive. On the other hand, there are a number of disadvantages. On the one hand, they last less time, lose their shine and are not recommended for larger treatments or for people who have a tendency to bite their nails or other objects.

Ceramic veneers

This type of veneers are created in laboratories and then placed on the patient's teeth with the help of some type of adhesive.
Like the previous ones, they have advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, they are more aesthetically pleasing than the previous ones and do not stain over time. They can be used to correct a wide variety of defects such as isolation, color, size or breaks. They help teeth to recover their function and strengthen them and also have a very short recovery time.
On the other hand, among its disadvantages we can find its cost, which is higher than composite veneers, the need for a greater number of sessions and that it does not offer the possibility of subsequent repairs, as is the case with other types of veneers.
