6 Types of Dental Veneers

Posted on 6/3/2024 by Dr. Christianne Lee

Dental veneers can be ideal for camouflaging flaws like tooth discoloration, minor cracks, or tiny chips. This cosmetic dentistry treatment features a custom-made shell that covers the tooth enamel to hide dental imperfections. They can help brighten your smile, replace damaged enamel, and correct cosmetic dental issues. Here are six types of dental veneers available to you:

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are the most common tooth veneers. They are distinguished for their natural-looking appearance as they mimic the color of your existing teeth. They can help fix dental imperfections such as tooth discoloration, crooked teeth, and chips.

Composite-Resin Veneers

Composite veneers are excellent for improving your smile and oral aesthetics without undergoing major dental procedures. They are ideal after dental bonding procedures and can help restore minor cosmetic issues. They are also renowned for their durability and sturdiness.

Zirconia Veneers

Zirconia veneers are ideal for restoring severely damaged teeth. They comprise ceramic materials that can help repair extensive cracks, chips, and fractures. They are durable since they are less prone to damage from carbonated drinks and acidic foods.

No-Prep Veneers

When getting veneers, your dentist may have to scrape off part of the tooth enamel for the veneers to fit. No-prep veneers are less invasive and entail less enamel removal than other options.

Palatal Veneers

Palatal veneers are an excellent option if you lack adequate tooth structure. They rely on the adjacent teeth for support, ensuring they remain in place. They are ideal when used with other dental restorations.

Pop-On Veneers

Most dental veneers are permanent. However, it is possible to have removable veneers. Pop-on veneers are removable and snap onto your natural teeth to conceal imperfections. You can remove them anytime, depending on your needs and preferences.
