Dental Restoration: The Benefits of Veneers
The filling materials that dentists used before could not imitate tooth tissues with all their optical properties: shades, transparency and multi-layering. The use of modern ceramic restorations makes it possible to create a natural shape and color with minimal processing of tooth tissues, and restore damaged teeth.

Composites are filling materials consisting of a polymer base like resin, filler (quartz), glass-like substance and dyes. They are called light-curing because they polymerize at the moment required by the doctor using the blue light of a special lamp.
Microprosthetics
Adhesive ceramic restoration is a technique for restoring individual teeth and dental arches (when one tooth is missing in the jaw in the anterior or lateral section) that returns not only a healthy appearance, but also functions in full.
Types of aesthetic artistic restoration of teeth
Inlays
Artificial ceramic restorations that replace defects in hard tooth tissues in the lateral sections of the dentition, formed as a result of the carious process, tooth abrasion or their injury. In fact, an inlay is an ideal filling made outside the oral cavity, in a dental laboratory. Today, dentists have proven that the restoration of large carious cavities with ceramic inlays is more effective and reliable than traditional light fillings.
Veneers
Very thin (0.4-0.8 mm) ceramic plates for the front group of teeth, glued to the enamel surface with special cement. They are used to improve the appearance of teeth that have partially lost color, are worn out, chipped or have an incorrect position in the dentition. They are fixed on the front and side teeth in cases where there is any cosmetic defect.
Veneers allow you to achieve the desired shape and color of the tooth, while protecting from external influences, preventing the formation of plaque, reducing the risk of caries. As a result, the tooth becomes highly durable and is practically indistinguishable from the rest.
They are manufactured in accordance with the anatomical shape, color of the patient's teeth and their wishes: excellent aesthetic results, minimal tooth preparation during manufacturing (in some clinical cases, tooth preparation is not required at all), as well as reliability and durability.
Veneers do not require special care: regular brushing with a toothbrush and floss (dental floss), as well as other teeth, ensures their shiny appearance for many years.
Advantages of restoration with veneers
- Correction of congenital and acquired defects of tooth enamel, change in tooth color:
- fluorosis spots (with excess fluoride in the body);
- tetracycline teeth;
- teeth darkened as a result of injury or root canal treatment using outdated methods.
- diastema - "gap", increased distance between the front incisors in the upper or lower row;
- trema - increased distance between other teeth.
