VENEERS
Dental Veneers in Dubai
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. At Saiganesh Medical Centre, our expert cosmetic dentists offer high-quality porcelain and composite veneers in Dubai to help you achieve a brighter, more symmetrical smile.
What Are Veneers?
Veneers are typically made of porcelain or resin-composite materials and are bonded permanently to your teeth. They are ideal for correcting cosmetic issues such as:
• Chipped or broken teeth
• Discoloration that doesn’t respond to whitening
• Gaps between teeth
• Uneven or misshapen teeth
• Teeth that are smaller than average
Some patients may need just one veneer (for a chipped tooth), while others may opt for six to eight veneers for a full smile makeover—usually on the top front teeth.
Types of Veneers We Offer:
1. Porcelain Veneers
Natural-looking and durable, porcelain veneers resist staining and can last 10–15 years. They often require some enamel removal.
2. No-Prep Veneers (e.g., Lumineers)
A less invasive option with minimal tooth preparation. These are thinner and may last 5–7 years.
3. Composite Resin Veneers
An affordable and effective solution, though less durable than porcelain. Typically lasts 5–8 years.
Note: Veneers are different from crowns and implants—veneers cover only the front surface of the tooth.
How Veneers Are Applied:
1. Consultation & Assessment
Your dentist will evaluate your smile, discuss goals, and determine your suitability for veneers.
2. Tooth Preparation
A small amount of enamel (about 0.5 mm) is trimmed from the tooth surface. Impressions are taken for lab fabrication.
3. Veneer Placement (After 1–2 weeks)
The veneers are checked for fit and color, then bonded using dental cement and hardened with UV light.
⏱️ The final appointment typically takes 1–2 hours.
Post-Treatment Care for Veneers
There’s little to no recovery time after veneer placement. You can eat normally once anesthesia wears off, but follow these precautions to extend veneer life:
• Avoid chewing on pens, nails, or ice
• Don’t use your teeth to open packages
• Chew hard foods with your back teeth
• Wear a night guard if you grind your teeth
• Use a mouthguard during sports
If you feel roughness on your veneers, it’s usually residual cement that will wear down. If not, your dentist can smooth it out.
