Veneers
- Veneers made of wafer-thin and translucent ceramics
A veneer is a wafer-thin, translucent ceramic shell for the teeth, which is applied to the tooth surface - especially of front teeth - with special adhesive.
Veneers can be used to correct slight tooth misalignments, tooth damage, gaps between teeth, unsatisfactory tooth colours and local discolouration. Veneers give the visible surfaces of the teeth an optimised appearance. Usually, when they are used, old plastic fillings or corner abutments are removed.
As a rule, veneers have a long lifespan.
