What Are Dental Veneers?

Ultra-thin ceramic shells (porcelain/zirconia) bonded to front teeth to refine color, shape, length, alignment, and symmetry—prioritizing enamel preservation whenever anatomy allows.

Who’s a Good Candidate

  • Stains or discoloration unresponsive to whitening
  • Chips, worn edges, small gaps, minor rotations
  • Healthy gums (or willingness to treat gum issues first)
  • Realistic expectations about shade, shape, and upkeep

Treatment Types

  • Porcelain veneers: Lifelike translucency; excellent stain resistance
  • Zirconia veneers: Extra strength where bite load is higher
  • Minimal/No-prep veneers: Select cases with favorable tooth position/enamel
  • Hybrid plans: Whitening or short aligner phase first → fewer, more conservative veneers

Step-by-Step Journey

  1. Consult & Scan — High-res photos, shade mapping, bite review
  2. Digital Mock-Up/Preview — On-screen or in-mouth test drive of shape/length
  3. Conservative Prep (if needed) — Enamel-focused; impressions or digital scan
  4. Temporaries — Live with new edges; give feedback on phonetics/smile line
  5. Final Ceramics & Bonding — Custom characterization; bite refinement
  6. Maintenance — Hygiene visits, night-guard for clenchers, gentle home care

Timeline

  • Typical: 2–4 weeks from consult to finals
  • Add time if aligners or gingival contouring are planned first

Costs (Guide)

  • Per veneer: ₩600,000–₩1,500,000+ depending on material, lab, and case complexity
  • Potential add-ons: whitening, aligners, gingival contouring, night-guard
    Ask for an itemized plan covering diagnostics, mock-ups, temps, finals, and follow-ups.

FAQs

Do veneers damage teeth?
Clinics prioritize minimal or no-prep when suitable; pre-alignment can further reduce drilling.

How many veneers do I need?
Commonly 6–10 in the smile zone; sometimes fewer when combined with whitening/bonding.

Will they look too white?
Shade and translucency are matched to your complexion and smile for believable brightness.
