Wafer-thin porcelain shells that transform stained, chipped, or uneven teeth into a picture-perfect smile.
Dental veneers are ultra-thin ceramic or composite shells bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve colour, shape, size, and alignment. They are the centrepiece of a smile makeover and can correct multiple aesthetic concerns in as few as two appointments. At Radix Cosmo Dental, smile designs are planned digitally so you can preview your result before treatment begins.
Photographs and digital tools are used to design your ideal smile.
A thin layer of enamel (0.3–0.5 mm) is removed to accommodate the veneer.
Precise impressions are taken and sent to the dental laboratory.
Temporary veneers protect teeth while permanent ones are fabricated.
Permanent veneers are tried in, adjusted, and bonded permanently.
Veneers correct stained or discoloured teeth, chipped or broken teeth, minor misalignment, gaps between teeth, and worn-down enamel.
Because a thin layer of enamel is removed, the tooth will always need a veneer or crown going forward. The veneer itself is not permanent and will need replacement after 10–15 years.
Yes. Porcelain veneers mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural enamel. Experienced dentists customise the shape and shade so veneers are indistinguishable from natural teeth.
Whitening only changes colour. Veneers change colour, shape, size, and alignment. If you have chips, gaps, or severe staining, veneers deliver a more comprehensive result.
