Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells of ceramic bonded to the front of teeth to transform their appearance. They’re one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures at our Bangalore clinic, capable of fixing discoloration, chips, gaps, and misalignment in a single visit.
What Problems Do Veneers Fix?
- Tooth discoloration that won’t respond to whitening
- Chipped, cracked, or worn teeth
- Gaps between teeth (diastema)
- Slightly crooked teeth as an alternative to braces
- Uneven or irregularly shaped teeth
- Tooth sensitivity from worn enamel
Types of Veneers
Porcelain Veneers
The gold standard — durable, stain-resistant, and the most natural-looking. Our dental veneers service uses premium IPS e.max and Feldspathic porcelain.
Composite Veneers
Direct bonding with tooth-colored resin. More affordable but less durable than porcelain.
Lumineers (No-Prep Veneers)
Ultra-thin veneers requiring minimal or no tooth reduction. Ideal for patients with good tooth structure.
