Veneers that are made from tooth-colored resin are known as composite veneers. These veneers are also used in the tooth bonding process as they can hide your bad teeth and bring a beautiful white smile back on your face.
If you have crooked, misshapen, chipped, stained, discolored, damaged teeth, or the enamel of your teeth has worn, then you can get composite veneers.
Both crowns and composite veneers do the same thing; they cover parts of your teeth. However, there is a huge difference between veneers and crowns as the shells are much thicker and cover more area of your teeth than crowns.
However, you will need to trim your teeth if you want crowns. Instead, choose composite veneers as you may or may not need any trimming of teeth.
It is not necessary to have bad teeth for composite veneers, as you can take the help of this treatment to change and enhance the appearance of your teeth.
Types of Composite Veneers Treatments
The composite resin veneers have already established their usefulness by being the easier way to get a new smile while also maintaining an economic advantage. There are three types of veneers that you choose depending on what suits your needs the best:
Direct Composite Veneers
The direct composite veneers treatment offers cosmetic enhancement of your smile after the composite veneers are crafted and fixed directly to your teeth using a potent dental bonding agent.
Despite being made of filled resins, their plastic appearance can be polished and refined to make them look fantastic. The ordeal of getting this type of veneer usually requires only a single appointment with your dentist in healthy cases.
Indirect Composite Veneers
The indirect composite veneers are another type of resin-made veneers that are available in the composite veneers treatments. Such veneers are also created in the lab using special dental plastic to harden them, increasing their life and adding a sheen.
The difference with these veneers is that they are made outside of your mouth before they’re applied to your teeth using a different type of composite bonding material. It is possible that obtaining them might require more than one visit.
Prefabricated Composite Veneers
The prefabricated composite veneers treatment offers you a similarly personalized solution to gain a better-looking smile. These veneers are also prepared outside of your mouth to match the shape, color, and size of your original teeth.
These veneers can also offer a single-day treatment possibility, provided that your oral health isn’t in shambles already.
If you are not confident about your smile, you can go for composite resin veneers, as they can do wonders for you. These veneers are an effective and aesthetically pleasing way to deal with your imperfect and damaged teeth correctly.
