Veneers
FOR PERFECT SMILE
Veneers
What Are Veneers?
Veneers are wafer-thin shells made of porcelain or ceramic material customized to cover the front surface of a tooth. Through this dental cosmetic procedure, it is possible to enhance the look of teeth that have been chipped, discolored, misaligned, or that have spaces between them, as well as for other aesthetic reasons.
Veneers are an efficient method for improving the overall look of a smile as they can be crafted to mimic the natural color and form of the teeth that surround them. Overall, this makes them an attractive option for anyone wanting to improve their smile.
In many ways, veneers are a better alternative to composites or bonding, as they too correct a variety of cosmetic issues, including chipping, gaps, stains, discolorations, and misaligned teeth.
However, what sets it apart from other cosmetic options is the fact that veneers are long-lasting, durable, and generally resistant to becoming stained, if well taken care of and maintained. All these advantages and more make it one of the most popular cosmetic dental procedures worldwide, to achieve perfect bright smiles.

The process of getting veneers entails a few steps. To begin, Dr. Youssef Lamjed and will evaluate your dental health to determine whether or not veneers are the most appropriate method for enhancing your teeth's look. When preparing your teeth for veneers, Dr. Youssef Lamjed will first remove a little bit of enamel from the front surface of each tooth.

This glue is tough, long-lasting, and plays an important role in ensuring that the veneers are adhered to the teeth in a safe and secure manner. After the veneers have been adhered to your teeth, Dr. Youssef Lamjed will examine your bite and make any required modifications to ensure that the final result is both comfortable and natural.
