What exactly is a dental shell?
Dental veneers are primarily intended to improve the aesthetic correction of teeth. In this case, the restoration only affects the front surfaces of the tooth.
By applying the right shells, gaps between teeth can be reduced or eliminated, discoloured or crowded teeth can be corrected, and even irregularly positioned teeth can be corrected.
Dental veneers are usually made of porcelain or composite and can be as thin as contact lenses.
How durable is a dental shell?
Dental veneers are essentially a durable solution to cover aesthetic problems, but they can be damaged by higher forces. These can include constant nail biting or teeth grinding. In these cases, the thin veneers can crack. It is important to know that cracked and damaged dental veneers can only be replaced, not repaired.
Of course, the durability of the shells is also greatly influenced by the frequency of oral care. Daily cleaning of the interdental space and regular brushing can increase the durability of the veneers, so they can be the perfect solution for up to 20 years of aesthetic problems!
How much does it cost?
The price of shells depends largely on whether they are porcelain, composite or contact lens thin shells. The cheapest solution is composite shells, slightly more expensive are porcelain shells and the most expensive solution is contact lens thickness shells.
