Aesthetic and functional smile restoration

Dental crowns and veneers are modern ways of restoring teeth both aesthetically and functionally. Veneers are thin ceramic shells applied to the front of the teeth, while crowns cover the whole tooth. Both improve the appearance, shape and strength of the teeth and contribute to a harmonious smile.

Veneers are used mainly for aesthetic changes to the front teeth and require minimal intervention in the tooth structure. Crowns are suitable where both the function and the strength of the whole tooth need to be restored. The choice depends on the state of the teeth and the doctor's recommendation.

These procedures are suitable for discoloured, uneven or worn teeth. They are likewise used for gaps between teeth or for worn enamel. The aim is to achieve an aesthetically balanced and natural-looking result.

The treatment is carried out under local anaesthesia, which makes it comfortable for the patient. Any sensitivity after the procedure is temporary and fades quickly.

How long treatment takes depends on the extent of the work and on the individual condition of the teeth. In some cases, especially smaller aesthetic changes, it can be done in a single appointment. More complex work runs over several visits, usually two or three, covering diagnosis, preparation of the teeth and then fitting the crowns or veneers.

With proper care crowns and veneers can last many years. Thorough oral hygiene, regular check-ups and professional cleaning are the key.

Modern materials and technology now allow a thoroughly natural appearance. The shape, colour and size of the teeth are designed individually to match the features of the face, so that the result reads as natural teeth rather than as an artificial replacement.

Yes, the colour of crowns or veneers is matched to the patient's wishes and to the overall look of the teeth. The dentist will also recommend a shade that looks natural and harmonious.
