Ceramic veneers

Veneers are a ceramic restoration treatment, fixed to the teeth using adhesive techniques. They are employed in dental cosmetic treatments as a way to reconstruct a smile altered by discolouration, wear, narrow teeth etc.

The main advantage over other types of veneers (composite) is that they do not age over time. Nowadays, thanks to advances in the manufacture of ceramic facings, we are able to carry out treatments which are much more respectful to your teeth while they are being restored or aesthetically improved.

Without requiring a complicated or painful intervention, and offering excellent results, putting in veneers is a much-sought reconstructive technique, above all in those cases where smile reconstruction is more complicated.

Crowns

On occasions, the teeth require complete recovering – either because existing crowns ought to be replaced or because aesthetic or functional requirements make it necessary.

In the former, it is preferable to fit totally ceramic crowns, with no internal metal structure so as to promote aesthetic integration.

Composite veneers

These are made up of thin sheets of resin composite that are carefully placed and sculpted over the ungrounded tooth; and as a rule, with no need for an anaesthetic. They offer high-quality aesthetic results and have the great advantage of not being an invasive treatment since they do not weaken the dental structure.

When the patient decides to improve their smile with composite veneers, it is possible to arrange a meeting where they can choose the tooth colour as well as other personal preferences, as functionality permits.

They can be removed whenever the patient wishes. The smile alterations are produced in a single morning session. The average lifespan of a composite veneer is around 10-15 years depending on the patient’s habits (tobacco, coffee, wine etc.). The great advantage they offer is that they can be retouched; consequently, after some time has passed, one only has to remove the top coat and replace it with a new one.

Lumineer veneers offer a beautiful smile yet are the result of a simple and painless procedure. Using a patented technology, and more than 30-years experience, Lumineers have developed a very delicate ceramic veneer that is fixed over the teeth without needing any type of tooth grinding- producing a changed smile.

Laser whitening treatment

A simple, pain-free technique that brings whiteness back to your teeth. The existence of stains can be caused by drinking tea or coffee, by tobacco and also start to appear with age.

Various teeth-whitening techniques exist; the best option being a technique which combines laser sessions at the clinic with whitening at home (over two to three weeks) using a made-to-measure cover that contains carbamide peroxide.

Lip cosmetics

The lips are often the centre of attention. Restylane (lip filling with hyaluronic acid) can increase lip volume, enhance their profile or define the Cupid’s bow in a natural way.
