LAMINATE VENEERS
Laminate Veneers : Laminate veneers are thin porcelain coverings used in cosmetic dentistry. These coverings are custom-fitted onto the front surface of teeth and are used to enhance the color, shape, and appearance of teeth. Laminate veneers are an excellent choice for those looking to achieve a natural and healthy smile. This treatment effectively addresses aesthetic issues such as tooth discoloration, cracks, gaps, and stains.
Thin Coverings
Laminate veneers are thin porcelain or composite resin coverings that are custom-fitted onto the front surface of teeth. These coverings are used to enhance the natural color and shape of teeth, to cover cracks, fill gaps, and to achieve an aesthetic smile.
Personalized Design
Every patient has a unique dental structure, and laminate veneers take this into account. Dentists listen to the patient's preferences and needs, customizing the veneers accordingly. The color, size, and shape of the teeth are designed to complement the patient's facial structure.
Aesthetic and Durability
Laminate veneers are effective both in terms of aesthetics and durability. They enhance the natural appearance of teeth while also being long-lasting. Furthermore, these coverings are resilient enough to withstand daily oral functions and chewing.

Lithium disilicate is a chemical compound that is a glass ceramic. It is widely used as a dental ceramic due to its strength, machinability and translucency. In today’s technology, this is the highest quality, most transparent and most durable material that can be used for laminate veneers. For this reason, only IPS e.max CAD by IVOCLAR blocks are used in laminate veneers in our clinic.
Laminate veneers require an adhesive material to be attached to the front surface of the teeth securely. This adhesive ensures that the veneer adheres firmly to the tooth. Special adhesives or resins are commonly used.
Before the application of laminate veneers, minimal preparations of the teeth may be necessary. This may involve slight abrasion or shaping of the teeth. This preparation helps the veneer to be fitted securely onto the tooth.
Laminate veneers are custom-designed to match each patient’s dental structure and aesthetic preferences. This design phase ensures that the veneers look natural alongside existing teeth.
The color and transparency of the veneers can be adjusted according to the patient’s preferences. This is important for achieving the desired aesthetic results.
