VENEERS

A captivating smile showing an even row of natural gleaming white teeth is a major factor in achieving that elusive dominant characteristic called personality. Veneers have been one of the procedures that begin to approximate the ideal parameter of cosmetic dentistry. The objective of cosmetic dentistry must be to provide maximum improvement in esthetic with the minimum trauma to the dentition. In spite of limitations of composite resins, compounded by the size and esthetical demands of veneers, direct composite resin veneers using resin bonding agents represent a rapid, safe, reversible, and conservative alternative to restore the esthetics, function, and biocompatibility of the teeth. But Ceramic veneers have been the most outstanding and long-lasting veneer restoration. The future holds promise for better methods of attachment and improved formulation of veneers.
