One of the benefits that dental veneers and laminates provide is permanent change in teeth color. The material is made of porcelain which is virtually resistant to stain. The porcelain veneer's color is white as well giving dark and stained teeth a renewed natural brilliance and light color. Veneers are also stronger compared to bonding and are well tolerated by the gums preventing any possibility of sensitivity or oral thrushes. Wearers can also immediately resume any kind of diet since there are no restrictions after fitting of the laminates. |

Dental veneers or porcelain laminates are basically shells that are specifically colored and designed to cover the front surface of the teeth providing a whiter and more radiant appearance. The shells are fitted in order to fix any imperfections with regards to the natural teeth's size, shape and color. The material is usually made of porcelain although others may come from resin composite materials. Laminates are very thin, translucent and have a lot of similar qualities with natural teeth. Once you get a dental tour package, your Philippine dentist will be more than glad to assist you in choosing right kind of veneer for your set of teeth. |

All these cases are thoroughly assessed and diagnosed before proceeding to appropriate treatment. The treatment will last only a day but the veneers have to be custom made especially for you after assessment which takes some days. After treatment, follow-up checkups will ensure that your smile stays perfect for the next five to ten years. |
