Porcelain veneers – very thin, 0,3 – 0,5 mm thick porcelain plates, that are covered on front teeth. If needed, they are produced extremely thin – in such case teeth are refurbished as little as possible. This method is very efficient and recommended, when:

• The shape of front teeth and position in arc is irregular;
• Changed color of front teeth (dead teeth, or damaged by fluorosis, tetracycline);
• Wide, unaesthetic gaps between teeth (diastemas);
• Dark tooth pigment that can not be removed using whitening methods;
• Traumas when part of cracked teeth need to be reconstructed;
• Insufficient height of teeth (low teeth); many unaesthetic fillings.

Veneering procedure helps to achieve three goals:

1. to obtain as great effect of teeth shape, color and position in arc, as possible;
2. to reconstruct the solid tissue of teeth;
3. to restore the chewing function.

Porcelain veneering is characterized with the following undoubted advantages:

• Porcelain is characterized with great adherence to enamel.
• It is more resistant than composite synthetic veneering or fillings (esthetic filling).
• It doesn’t change color or the gloss.
• Less tooth tissue is removed, than in case of crowns or filling.
• It functions for 10 – 12 years, whereas fillings last for 3-8 years.
• Tooth gum tissue tolerates porcelain well, without potential danger of allergy.
• Even extremely dark teeth can become extremely white.
• The method of esthetic filling is not always suitable for covering of dark teeth; fillings do not retain the gloss.
