DESCRIPTION
Dental veneers or most of the time called porcelain veneers, are a thin layer, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front of the teeth surface and made of tooth-colored materials, and specially designed to change your appearance. With Porcelain Veneers, our dentist is able to change their color, shape, size, or length of your original teeth. Porcelain veneers made from porcelain which normally called Lithium disilicate or with a popular brand name EMAX. Porcelain veneers able to resist against stain that normally appear on the surface of normal tooth that can change the tooth color. Litium disilicate material also have more of the light-reflecting features of natural teeth. Enamel removal from your teeth is still needed in order to make room for veneers and custom-fit the veneers to the tooth. The enamel removal also makes the surface of your teeth rough and helps keep the veneers in place.
