There are two types of dental veneers to choose from. If you need help deciding which one to get, our Billerica dentist can recommend one based on your dental needs and budget.
a) Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are the strongest type of veneers currently available. They resemble a thin cap and are placed on the damaged surface of the tooth to restore it, thus improving its appearance while protecting the tooth from additional damage. Your natural teeth must be prepared before veneer installation can take place. The entire process is safe, painless, and takes little time to complete.
Most porcelain veneers come already painted with natural-looking color. Nonetheless, your dentist can still adjust them, making them look even more appealing and natural. Visit our dental clinic to get porcelain veneers.
b) Resin Based Composite Veneers
Resin veneers are in many ways similar to porcelain veneers since they look natural and come in the same shade as porcelain veneers. However, unlike porcelain veneers, resin-based composite veneers tend to require less enamel removal during preparation and are cheaper. In addition, they are easier to replace when damaged or broken but less durable than porcelain veneers.
