Dental Veneers

Chipped, stained, spaced, or slightly misaligned teeth can sometimes affect your confidence in your smile. If you’re looking to permanently improve the appearance of your teeth, dental veneers offer a refined aesthetic solution that gently transforms your smile.

At Carrefour Dentaire 440 in Laval, we offer custom-made veneers designed to harmonize the shape, color, and alignment of your front teeth, while respecting your natural style. Two materials are available: composite and porcelain, each with their own distinct advantages.

What is a dental veneer?

A veneer is a thin shell, made of composite or porcelain, that is attached to the visible surface of the tooth. It helps hide imperfections, even out tooth color, and create a more balanced smile.

Veneers are often used in the following situations:

  • Persistent stains or discolorations.
  • Slight alignment or shape anomalies.
  • Visible spaces between certain teeth (diastemas).
  • Worn, cracked, or chipped teeth.
  • The desire for a specific aesthetic result.

Each veneer is custom-made to your needs, to blend perfectly with your existing teeth.

How does the treatment work?

The process consists of a few simple steps, always under professional supervision:

  1. Initial consultation: Our team assesses your aesthetic expectations and determines whether veneers are appropriate for you.
  2. Tooth preparation: A thin layer of enamel is removed (depending on the type of veneer), then impressions are taken.
  3. Veneer fabrication: These are made in the laboratory or directly at the clinic, depending on the material chosen.
  4. Fitting and adjustment: We check the aesthetics, shade, and fit before permanently attaching them.

Everything takes place in a calm environment, with particular attention paid to your comfort and the quality of the result.

Composite or porcelain: which material should you choose?

Composite veneers are shaped and placed directly on the teeth in the clinic. They allow for a quick, cost-effective transformation. They are well suited for minor touch-ups or targeted corrections. However, they have a shorter lifespan.

Porcelain veneers, on the other hand, offer a more durable and natural appearance. Their laboratory-made fabrication allows for remarkable precision, both in terms of color and translucency. To create the necessary space, a thin layer of enamel must be removed, making this a permanent and irreversible treatment.

Our team will guide you in choosing the best option for your situation, whether it’s a composite or porcelain material.

Enhance your smile with confidence

Dental veneers don’t just change the appearance of your teeth: they also transform the way you look at yourself. In just a few appointments, you could rediscover the joy of smiling fully, without restraint.
