Dental veneers
Dental veneers are an aesthetic dentistry procedure that helps achieve a flawless smile. Thin, custom-made porcelain shells are bonded to the surface of teeth to adjust their shape, color, or position. This is a highly popular solution for those seeking long-lasting aesthetic results with minimal tooth reduction. Veneers look natural and are resistant to stains and discoloration. The procedure can significantly enhance not only your smile but also your self-confidence.
Ceramic veneer
This is an aesthetic and functional restoration made from ceramic in a dental technician’s laboratory.
It is a myth that ceramic veneers require extensive tooth reduction.
Nowadays, ceramic veneers can even be made on completely unshaved teeth.
Major advantages of veneers
- Highest level of aesthetics.
- Easy maintenance.
- Durability.
Long-lasting aesthetics
-
Dental veneers subtly cover the natural surfaces of front teeth, helping to preserve healthy tooth structures and create a harmonious result.
-
We work with highly qualified dental technicians to ensure precision, aesthetics, and durability.
-
The procedure does not require extensive tooth reduction—the maximum removed layer is only 0.8 mm, and in some cases, only 0.3 mm is needed. “Non-prep” veneers can be applied without any reduction.
-
A smile restored with veneers requires no special maintenance or polishing, retains its natural shine for decades, and serves for many years.
When to choose dental veneers?

“Dental veneers are the best choice when you want to significantly improve the shape and color of your teeth, as they are suitable for almost all dental aesthetic problems. They are a longer-lasting and maintenance-free option that preserves the whiteness and shine of your smile for decades.
