1. Do composite veneers hurt?

No. The entire procedure is performed under local anesthesia - you do not feel any pain or vibration. After the anesthesia wears off, slight sensitivity is possible, but it goes away within days.

2. Do you need to grind your teeth?

Yes, but minimally. The doctor removes a layer of enamel approximately 0.3–0.5 mm thick - this is less than the thickness of a sheet of paper. Unlike ceramic veneers, where grinding can reach 0.5–1 mm, composite ones require more gentle preparation. In some cases (closing a diastema or correction of a small chip) you can do without turning at all.

3. How long do composite veneers last?

The average service life is 5–7 years. This is less than that of ceramics (10–15 years), but the cost is several times lower. Composite veneers can be repaired directly in the mouth - chips or darkening are corrected in one. visit, without replacing the entire structure. With good care (regular hygiene, gentle diet, professional cleaning every six months), they last longer.

4. Do they darken over time?

The composite material is more porous than ceramics, so it absorbs dyes from coffee, tea, and red wine. But over time, veneers may change color slightly. it’s not scary: every 6-12 months the doctor carries out professional cleaning and polishing - and the veneers are like new again. 5-7 years, if damaged, they can be repaired. Ceramic veneers are made in the laboratory using impressions, they require 2-3 visits and 2-3 weeks of waiting. They are more expensive, last longer (10-15 years), do not change color and better imitate natural enamel.

6. Is it possible to make composite veneers during pregnancy?

Yes, in the second and third trimesters - it is possible, but taking into account the nuances. During pregnancy, the gums often become more loose and prone to bleeding. This can affect the quality of the veneer's fit. Therefore, it is better to plan aesthetic restorations for the period after childbirth, if there is no urgent need. In general, the procedure is safe: local anesthesia with articaine is used, which is allowed during pregnancy.

7. care for composite veneers?

Care is simple, but requires attention: Brush your teeth twice a day with a soft brush and non-abrasive toothpaste. Use dental floss - especially in the area of contact between the veneer and the adjacent tooth. Do not chew nuts and seeds, don't bite off ice, don't open bottles with your teeth. Once every six months, come for professional hygiene - the doctor will polish the surface of the veneers and remove plaque from the gum area.

When are composite veneers suitable

Composite veneers solve several aesthetic problems:

Unfortunate color. Teeth darkened after root canal treatment, from coffee, tea or with age, and whitening does not help.
Irregular shape. Teeth are too small, too rounded or have an uneven cutting edge.
Small chips and cracks. Especially on the front teeth, where every imperfection is visible.
Diastemas and gaps between the teeth that are not closed by orthodontics for various reasons.
Old fillings on the front ones. teeth that spoil the smile.

If the teeth are badly damaged, there are caries, the gums are inflamed or there are serious problems with bite - first we treat it, and then we make veneers.

How we make composite veneers at KAN Dental

1. Diagnostics and digital project.

We start with an examination, take targeted images or panoramic radiography. We discuss your wishes regarding the shape, color and length of the teeth. We prepare a digital project - you see an approximate result even before the procedure. We analyze each image via Diagnocat: it finds hidden caries, microcracks and inflammation that can affect the durability of veneers.

2. Preparation.

If necessary, we treat adjacent teeth, carry out professional hygiene. We select the shades of the composite material so that the new tooth looks natural next to yours. We work under a microscope - this guarantees an accurate fit.

3. under a microscope.

The procedure takes from 1.5 to 2 hours per tooth. The doctor applies the composite material in thin layers, forming the anatomy of the tooth, and polymerizes each layer with a special lamp with a 20-30‑fold magnification to create an ideal microrelief and natural shine.

4. control.

After installation, we tell you about care, what you can eat and drink in the first days. We schedule control examinations.
