Ceramic and zirconia dental veneers: what they are and how they are fitted

A bright, radiant Hollywood smile is no longer a distant dream. More and more people are looking for ways to correct the imperfections of their smile, from teeth of uneven shades to small gaps between teeth or flaws in shape and alignment. Dental veneers are a quick, elegant and effective option for a natural, harmonious smile. With this cosmetic dentistry treatment, you can significantly change the look of your smile – and, with it, your self-confidence – in a short time and with a minimally invasive procedure.

What are dental veneers?

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells, made from very strong materials, that are bonded to the visible surface of the teeth. Their main purpose is to mask cosmetic imperfections, giving an even, pleasing appearance. At Dental CATTED, we use two main types of veneers, each with its own advantages:

  • Ceramic veneers are valued for their appearance, as they closely mimic the translucency and natural look of tooth enamel.
  • On the other hand, zirconia veneers are very strong, making them a suitable option for patients with a stronger bite, without compromising on appearance.

The advantages of dental veneers

Choosing dental veneers comes with a number of significant benefits that can change how you feel about smiling:

  • Wide-ranging aesthetic correction: Veneers can correct the color of your teeth, mask permanent stains, change the shape of uneven or chipped teeth and can even close small gaps between teeth (diastemas), without the need for complex orthodontic treatment.
  • Natural-looking, long-lasting results: The materials used are biocompatible and stain-resistant, which helps them last a long time. What is more, they look so close to natural teeth that they are hard to tell apart.
  • Minimally invasive procedure: To fit the veneers, only a small amount of enamel is reshaped, preserving as much of the natural tooth structure as possible.

The stages of getting dental veneers

The process of getting dental veneers at Dental CATTED is simple, predictable and personalized for each patient. Here are the main stages:

  • Smile planning: Using the 3Shape intraoral scanner, we create a mock-up that lets you preview the planned result for your smile before treatment begins.
  • Preparing the teeth: The dentist reshapes a small amount of enamel to create the space needed for the veneers. A digital impression is then taken.
  • Try-in and bonding: The veneers are tried in and, once you approve them, they are permanently bonded to the surface of the teeth with a special adhesive.
