Veneers, amalgam, composite : they are all common words that represent nice solutions in dentistry, Most importantly, they are major players in restoring teeth.

Thin layers fixed to the visible surface of the treated tooth, veneers are made out of porcelain or composite.

When do you need veneers?

Veneers are usually used to enhance the smile esthetics. For example when you have a gap between your teeth, to realign your teeth and also to change the shape and color of your teeth.

What are the steps involved for getting veneers?

Porcelain veneers require two appointments. First, Dr. Nguyen and her team will reduce the visible surface of your teeth. Then an impression is taken and sent to the laboratory for the fabrication of the veneer. At the second appointment, the porcelain veneers are glued to your teeth with an adhesive resin. The main advantages of this type of restoration is the nice finished surface and the resistance to stain.

Composite veneers, on the other hand, are made by the dentist chairside in one appointment.

The outer surface of the tooth is also reduced, a resin composite is applied and shaped on the tooth. The shade is picked so that it matches the rest of the teeth. The composite is then hardened by a light and will then be adjusted and polished.

So for your veneers need in Chateauguay, visit the Centre de santé dentaire Dr. Thu Nguyen.
