Veneers - is it worth buying?

December 23

At least since the cinemas reopened, the movie stars and actors have become more present on the screens, and every time you ask yourself how these people manage to look so perfect. Certainly there is a lot of make-up and targeted post-processing behind it, but there are certain areas that cannot be masked that easily. One of these areas are the teeth, and it is precisely these teeth and the methods that well-known Hollywood & Co. people are supposed to use today.

Veneers - small plates on the teeth

One of the most promising methods for white teeth is veneers, which are also widely used by famous people. Veneers can first of all be described as small plates or shells that the dentist glues onto the teeth with great care. This is useful, for example, if you have had an accident or have a very dark natural tooth color. For example, you could have a cracked tooth or a very large gap between your teeth. Veneers can help. Now let's look at the different types of veneers and their respective advantages and disadvantages.

With conventional ceramic veneers, the dentist prepares the damaged teeth before bonding. First, the sliding movement of the jaw is measured with special instruments. The tooth is then “filed down” in a fluffy expression and existing edges and corners are ground off. The veneers are then attached to the teeth using a special adhesive technique. The main disadvantage of this procedure is the grinding of the teeth, as this permanently destroys the tooth enamel and the teeth can become more sensitive to temperature.

Composite veneers

Composite veneers were invented in order to avoid grinding the teeth as the main disadvantage of conventional ceramic veneers. Composite is a tooth-colored, malleable material that only requires a light treatment of the tooth surface for attachment. When all layers of composite have been successfully applied and cured with a special lamp, they are then polished again and look like natural teeth.

Veneers in general have the major disadvantage that their price is in the upper segment of aesthetic tooth whitening. That is also the reason why only Hollywood stars and Co. use this method.
