Full Ceramic Veneer

Thin, custom ceramic shells bonded to the front of the teeth to improve their colour, shape and alignment for a brighter, more even smile. Each veneer is designed in the practice's digital workflow and matched to the patient's other teeth, with a wax-up or mock-up available beforehand so the planned result can be previewed. Veneers suit discoloured, chipped, worn or slightly irregular front teeth where a conservative cosmetic change is wanted.

Veneers are thin facings of dental ceramic bonded to the visible surface of the front teeth to refine their appearance. They can address teeth that are discoloured and resistant to whitening, chipped or worn at the edges, slightly crooked or unevenly spaced, creating a more uniform and harmonious smile while keeping the change conservative compared with full crowns. At Stomatologia Pietrzyccy full-ceramic veneers are planned using the practice's digital tools. Before any irreversible work, a diagnostic wax-up or an in-mouth mock-up can be produced so the proposed shape and proportions are previewed and agreed. A minimal amount of enamel is typically prepared, an intraoral scan is taken, and each veneer is fabricated in ceramic and colour-matched to neighbouring teeth before being bonded into place and polished. Because veneers are individually crafted, attention is given to the smile line, tooth proportions and how the teeth meet so the result looks natural. Veneers are associated with cosmetic improvement of the front teeth rather than with treating dental disease, and good gum health and a stable bite are important for a lasting outcome; suitability, the number of teeth involved and the planned design are discussed at consultation, often alongside a wax-up.
