What is Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of teeth, improving their appearance. Made from materials like porcelain or composite resin, veneers are used to correct issues such as discoloration, chips, gaps, or irregular shapes. They offer a durable and natural-looking solution for enhancing your smile. At Ashford Dental Centre in Singapore, our expert dentists provide tailored veneer treatments to help you achieve the perfect smile.

Anyone who wishes to improve the appearance of their teeth should consider veneers. They are most useful for those who:

  • Want to correct discoloured teeth (where teeth whitening cannot provide a satisfactory result)
  • Want to change the shape of your teeth (make them longer, shorter, thinner or broader)
  • Want to correct rotated or misaligned teeth
  • Have worn down teeth
  • Have fillings which frequently break and fracture

What material are dental veneers made from?

Dental veneers can be made from any of the materials mentioned below:

  1. Composite resin
  2. Porcelain
  3. Zirconia

Composite Resin

Composite resin is a tooth-coloured pliable material that can be placed directly unto your teeth. It is widely used in dental fillings and for cosmetic bonding. Its main advantage is that it can be placed in a single visit.

Porcelain and Zirconia

There are several types of porcelain and zirconia options available. The type used depends on your specific situation. The chief objective is achieve excellent aesthetics, however, several other factors are to be considered when selecting material. These include:

Advantages of Dental Veneers

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Veneers Treatment in Singapore

Is veneer beneficial for dental health?

Enamel that is damaged may be worrisome since once lost, it cannot regrow. Luckily, you have the option to substitute it. Veneers are a great option for teeth that have enamel abrasion or erosion, and they also have a nice appearance.

What is the lifespan of veneers?

How long dental veneers last varies based on the type (porcelain or composite) and your maintenance routine. Porcelain laminate veneers have a lifespan of 10 to 12 years. Composite resin veneers have a shorter lifespan of approximately 4 to 8 years, requiring more frequent replacement.

Is it possible to revert to natural teeth after getting veneers?

Once veneers are in place, it is impossible to return to your original teeth. This happens because a small portion of enamel is eliminated from the teeth in order to create space for the veneers. Even if they are extracted, your teeth will appear altered and could be more fragile and suffer from increased sensitivity.

Do veneers cause pain during the procedure?

You may not feel significant discomfort during the placement process, however, it may take a few weeks for your mouth to get used to the changes made. You may notice slight tenderness, need to realign your bite, and experience a bulky sensation in your teeth temporarily. This is just a temporary situation.

What happens to natural teeth once veneers are applied?

In addition to the slight removal of enamel, well-fitted and bonded veneers do not affect the surrounding teeth. Most clients will not face the problems or scary stories they have been told about, like unpleasant odors or decay of their real teeth.

Is it possible to get veneers completed in a single day?

Composite veneers are sometimes referred to as “same-day veneers” because they can be put on in just one visit. At least two visits are necessary for porcelain veneers.

Is it permissible to bite down using veneers?

Although porcelain veneers can generally withstand most foods, caution should be exercised with hard items such as apples, raw carrots, and bone-in meats. Cracking the porcelain is a risk when biting on very hard foods, so it is advisable to use your molars to chew them instead.

What is the best way to sleep when you have veneers?

Grinding your teeth while sleeping can lead to significant harm to your porcelain veneers and might also result in them becoming dislodged. Grinding your teeth at night can also lead to damage or erosion of your natural teeth. In order to avoid this avoidable harm, make sure to wear a night guard while you are sleeping.

What does composite veneer refer to?

Composite veneers consist of thin resin layers that are applied to the tooth’s surface without damaging the enamel. This substance can be shaped directly onto the tooth, enabling a more attractive, natural, and healthier smile. The process may require one or multiple sessions, depending on the quantity of teeth needing treatment.

What exactly is a porcelain veneer?

Dental veneers, also known as porcelain veneers or dental porcelain laminates, are custom-made thin shells in the color of teeth that are placed on the front surface of teeth to alter your appearance. These shells are attached to the front of the teeth, altering their color, shape, size, or length.

Are porcelain veneers beneficial for your dental health?

Veneers do not cause harm to your teeth. Nonetheless, there is still a chance for decay to occur in the original tooth structure. Hence, it is crucial to regularly brush, floss, and see your dentist for cleanings.

At what age is it ideal to have porcelain veneers placed?

Waiting for girls to reach 14 to 16 years of age and boys to be around 18 years old, as this is when the jaw usually stops growing and changing in size and shape. Placing veneers while jaw growth is still ongoing may cause teeth to move and veneers to become misaligned.

Is it possible to clean veneers by brushing them?

Veneers and the teeth they are placed on require appropriate maintenance! Brushing your veneers and teeth twice a day is extremely important. We suggest using a gentle toothpaste without harsh ingredients such as baking soda and charcoal.

Is it possible for you to remove veneers?

A dentist has the ability to remove veneers in order to replace them, however, in majority of situations, it is not possible to have veneers removed and return to your natural teeth. Patients should thoroughly contemplate the level of dedication required before selecting this treatment choice.
