When might veneers be needed?

Laminates are most commonly referred to as veneers or specifically porcelain veneers. A popular treatment veneers are something your dentist in Birmingham can offer much advice on. Veneers can alter the shape and colour of your teeth significantly. This is accomplished by securing a very thin sliver of material, usually porcelain, onto your teeth to mimic the colour and texture of your existing teeth. The veneer is glued in place usually with a UV cured bonding gel.

What are they made from?

Generally veneers are made from either a resin compound or out of porcelain. Both of these options really mimic natural tooth colour and texture very well. Not just that but properly adhered to the tooth they provide an additional protection from acidic or staining food and drink that could otherwise damage your natural teeth.

Are they good for anything other than appearance?

Probably the number one reason people opt for dental veneers from their dentist in Birmingham is that they can significantly enhance the appearance of your teeth. But more than just the cosmetic benefits, veneers whether porcelain or resin based provide a brilliant guard against what’s coming into your mouth and the teeth you want to protect. You may have a cracked or chipped tooth that if left exposed could open up to bacteria and infection. What’s more they can help defend against overly worn teeth and help if you have overly sensitive teeth. So there is a lot going for dental veneers and for good reason.
