Veneers in Calgary

Veneers

Veneers are a popular way to create the smile you’ve always dreamed of by hiding flaws and imperfections in natural teeth. Because they fit to the front of a tooth in materials that blend in, it’s difficult to tell that veneers are even there. This works well if you’re looking to improve your smile with a long-term solution.

What Are Veneers?

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of teeth. They are typically made from porcelain or composite resin to mimic the natural look of the rest of your teeth. The process involves removing a small amount of enamel from the tooth surface, taking an impression, and bonding the veneer to the tooth. Veneers provide a natural-looking, durable solution for enhancing the overall appearance of your smile.

When Are Veneers Used?

The main reason why veneers are used is to hide imperfections in teeth and create a uniform appearance when you smile. They are often used to improve the appearance of teeth that are stained, chipped, misaligned, or have gaps between them. These conditions are usually mild, which is why a veneer works well. For more complex cases, your dentist will have alternate suggestions.
