Composite Veneer

A composite veneer improves the look of a front tooth by bonding tooth-coloured resin directly onto its surface and shaping it by hand in a single visit. At WellDent composite veneers are 1,200 zł per tooth, making them a more affordable route to refining shape, closing small gaps or masking discolouration than laboratory-made porcelain. The resin is colour-matched to the surrounding teeth and polished for a natural finish.

A composite veneer is a cosmetic treatment in which tooth-coloured resin is applied to the front of a tooth and sculpted directly in the mouth to reshape it, close a small gap, lengthen a worn edge or cover discolouration. Unlike porcelain veneers, which are crafted in a laboratory and bonded at a later visit, composite veneers are usually completed chairside in a single appointment, which keeps the cost lower — WellDent prices them at 1,200 zł per tooth compared with 2,400 zł for porcelain. The dentist selects a resin shade to match the surrounding teeth, prepares the tooth surface minimally, then builds up and shapes the composite in layers before curing, trimming and polishing it to a natural lustre. Because the material is added rather than the tooth being heavily reduced, the approach is relatively conservative, though composite can pick up stain over time and is generally less hard-wearing than porcelain, so the dentist will explain the trade-offs in appearance, durability and cost. Composite veneers suit adults with healthy teeth who want a quicker, lower-cost improvement to one or several front teeth, or who would like to preview the kind of change a veneer can make. Suitability and the most appropriate option are agreed at consultation before treatment.
