Veneers
Veneers [4] are thin, tooth-colored shells that cover the front of one or more teeth. It is regarded as a cosmetic technique designed to enhance the appearance of stained or damaged teeth.
Small or short teeth may look more even with veneers. Additionally, they can make teeth that are stained, broken, or chipped uniform.
Veneers can be created from composite resin or porcelain. There are two methods for applying veneers:
- Traditional: This necessitates thorough preparation, which includes removing enamel and structural elements of the native tooth.
- No prep: Less preparation and enamel removal are needed for this. Anesthesia is not required for this kind of veneer.
With the right maintenance, veneers can last anywhere between 5 and 15 years.
Dentures
Dentures [5] are a detachable alternative to missing teeth. The gums around teeth and dentures have a similar appearance.
You can acquire a full set of dentures if you’ve lost all of your teeth due to an accident, tooth decay, or gum disease. A partial denture may be recommended to replace your missing teeth if you still have some of your own natural teeth.
Prior to receiving a denture fitting, you might need to have any teeth that are fractured or rotten removed.
