What are composite veneers? – Composite Veneers Ahmedabad
Dental veneers are the most commonly used and versatile cosmetic dentistry procedure. There are two types of dental veneers- porcelain and composite veneers. Porcelain veneers are thin wafer-like shells fabricated in dental labs. On the other hand, composite veneers are a resin-based composite material applied to the tooth by our cosmetic dentists and molded to perfectly match your teeth’s shape, size, and color.
Veneers differ from dental crowns in that the crown is a prosthesis that covers the tooth from all sides, whereas the veneer only masks the front surface. Composite veneers are fabricated in a single sitting at Oris Smiles Dental Clinic. Our chief dentist Dr. Janu Shah ensures that strict sterilization protocols are followed in every treatment you get.
