Porcelain Veneers

Veneers are thin facings bonded to the front of teeth to improve their colour, shape and alignment for a brighter, more even smile. Stomatologia Kucharski offers laboratory porcelain veneers as well as a more economical composite option applied directly in the chair. They are typically used on the upper front teeth to address discolouration, small chips, gaps or minor irregularities.

Veneers are slim shells that cover the visible surface of a tooth to enhance its appearance, and are most often used across the upper front teeth to create a more uniform, attractive smile. They can disguise discolouration that does not respond to whitening, close small gaps, reshape worn or slightly chipped teeth and improve the look of minor crowding or irregularity, usually with only minimal preparation of the natural tooth. Stomatologia Kucharski offers porcelain (ceramic) veneers, which are individually crafted to a chosen shade and bonded to the teeth for a translucent, natural-looking and stain-resistant finish, as well as composite veneers, which are built up directly on the tooth in a single visit as a more economical alternative. Porcelain veneers generally involve taking an impression and bonding the finished facings at a later appointment, while composite veneers are completed chairside. The dentist will assess whether veneers are the right approach — they suit cosmetic improvement of otherwise healthy front teeth rather than heavily damaged or root-treated teeth, which are usually better restored with crowns — and will discuss shade, shape and how many teeth to treat to achieve a balanced result. Because veneers are a considered cosmetic choice, planning the look in advance is important, and this is something international patients can begin at a consultation and plan around a visit. Care and the expected longevity of each option are explained as part of treatment.
