What are revision veneers?

We often have clients who have composite or bonded veneers request a smile makeover with porcelain veneers to update their smile - like Christina's smile here. One reason that is often cited for choosing porcelain veneers is the enhanced longevity of the material. Another reason are the aesthetic benefits that allows more precise control.

Each material has its own strengths and drawbacks. We always advise those on their smile journey to research and understand the options. With every smile makeover, we always begin by addressing which options are best suited to each individual smile and your unique goals.

What are veneers?

There are typically two types of dental veneers that people often refer to: porcelain or bonded (composite) veneers. Both varieties use material that is bio-compatible. This means veneers can replicate natural teeth function with no obstruction or interference to your daily routine. With new advances in technology, hybrid veneers are also an option that uses a combination of materials.

Veneers are the ultimate and most immediate route to cosmetically augmenting your smile if you are suitable for treatment. One of the most important aspects of selecting veneers is choosing the right practitioner to sculpt your desired smile.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain Veneers are made of ultra-thin ceramic porcelain that is permanently bonded to your natural tooth enamel. They are commonly placed on the front surface of your tooth to enhance your teeth for cosmetic and structural purposes. Porcelain veneers provide a more natural look, superior durability and are highly stain resistant.

Edge Bonding Veneers

Bonded Veneers (also known as composite veneers, direct veneers, chair-side veneers or resin) are specifically crafted and bonded to your tooth enamel by a senior dentist. Bonded veneers are made up of composite resin and shaped directly by our senior dentist. It is very important to select an experienced practitioner who can provide the results you are looking for.

Bonded veneers are a minimally invasive procedure aimed to provide immediate results. The procedure is generally simpler, usually costs less and requires less wait time. However, bonded veneers do not last as long as porcelain, and are not stain resistant.
