Enhance your smile with dental veneers
Dental veneers are thin shells made of porcelain or composite that cover the visible surface of teeth to improve their appearance. They are a fast and durable cosmetic solution to correct imperfections such as discoloration, wear, chips, gaps between teeth, or slight misalignment.
At Soins dentaires Stephan, we offer custom veneers designed to blend perfectly with your smile in both color and shape. Whether you want to enhance the appearance of one or two teeth or transform your entire smile, veneers are a highly aesthetic and personalized option.
How veneers are placed
The procedure begins with a consultation during which we evaluate your goals and overall oral health. We also discuss the choice of material — porcelain or composite — based on your expectations, budget, and desired durability.
For porcelain veneers, we prepare the tooth surface by removing a thin layer of enamel to ensure optimal adhesion. Precise impressions are then taken to fabricate your custom veneers in a dental laboratory.
At your second appointment, we perform final adjustments before permanently bonding the veneers using a high-quality dental cement. For composite veneers, the procedure can often be completed in a single visit, with the material applied and sculpted directly on the tooth before being polished for a natural finish.
The benefits of dental veneers
Veneers provide immediate and dramatic results. Their natural finish restores the aesthetics of your smile while preserving the existing tooth structure. Porcelain veneers are especially durable and can last over 15 years with proper care. Composite veneers, while slightly less durable, are more affordable and easier to repair or modify.
Beyond aesthetics, veneers can also protect slightly weakened enamel and boost self-confidence. They require simple maintenance: regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental visits.
