Dental veneers in Zagreb

What is a dental veneer?

As its name suggests veneers for teeth and thin shells that are attached to the front side of teeth to improve their appearance. Dental veneers are made from porcelain or composite materials and are used to correct irregularities and change the teeth' colour or shape. Teeth veneers provide an esthetically appealing smile with minimal intervention on a natural tooth.

Types of dental veneers

There are several types of veneers for teeth, and each of them has its specific features, advantages and disadvantages. The choice depends on the specific needs and desires of a patient.

• Ceramic veneers provide a natural appearance and long-term resistance to stains. They are ideal for aesthetic improvement of teeth' colour and shape.
• Porcelain veneers are a specific type of ceramic veneers for teeth, made of high-quality porcelain. They offer a natural appearance and resistance to discolouration but require tooth grinding for proper placement.
• Composite veneers are made of composite materials, they are less invasive and usually more affordable than porcelain veneers for teeth. Their disadvantage is that they can be less stain-resistant.

No-prep veneers are placed without prior tooth grinding, which makes this procedure less invasive and usually much faster. Nevertheless, veneers without grinding are not suitable for all cases.

Dental veneers installation

The teeth veneer procedure includes several key steps:

• Consultation and planning of placement of dental veneers are necessary for the dentist to evaluate your teeth and discuss with you your wishes for aesthetic changes.

• Temporary dental veneers can be placed while the permanent veneers are being manufactured.
• Permanent dental veneer installation follows once the veneers, examined by a dentist, are ready. Finally, they are permanently attached to the teeth with a special cement.
• Checking and adjusting ensure that veneers sit properly and that the bite is aligned.
