The ‘Hollywood Smile’ phenomenon, popularised by American cinema stars and adopted by television presenters, sports personalities, and reality TV stars, has become a global trend accelerated by social media. Dental veneers and crowns now play a significant role in the collective imagination, offering the public the dream of a perfect smile – dazzlingly white and perfectly aligned.
Dental veneers are thin ceramic films individually bonded to the outside of front teeth to correct alignment, overlap, or spacing issues, resulting in a flawless aesthetic appearance. While primarily used for cosmetic purposes, dental veneers can also address various dental problems such as discoloured or stained teeth, damaged natural enamel, and broken teeth.
Veneers are suitable for most dentitions and require less space than crowns. Some types can be bonded directly to the tooth without filing the enamel, while others necessitate filing the dental enamel to varying degrees – an irreversible process.

Tout savoir sur les facettes dentaires
Réaliser des facettes dentaires demande mûre réflexion et analyse. C’est une décision irréversible, l’email qui sera limé des dents pour y fixer les facettes dentaires étant perdu pour toujours. Il est important de savoir que cet émail est le protecteur naturel du nerf de chaque dent : un limage trop profond et des facettes mal posées ou de mauvaise qualité, peuvent l’exposer aux bactéries et à une dégradation irrémédiable.
Essential Information About Dental Veneers
Opting for dental veneers requires careful consideration. It’s an irreversible decision, as the enamel removed from the teeth to attach the veneers cannot be restored. Enamel serves as the natural nerve protector for each tooth; excessive filing and poorly fitted veneers can expose teeth to bacteria and irreparable damage.
Dr Omer, a specialist dental surgeon, explains that the need for tooth filing before fitting veneers depends on the patient’s original teeth. If there’s a natural gap between the teeth or if they’re small, minimal filing may be required. He emphasises that fitting prostheses is an irreversible procedure and patients should consider replacing their veneers after a certain period.
The decision to get veneers must consider the financial aspect. Dental veneers are not typically covered by health insurance, making them potentially expensive. When multiple veneers are needed, the final cost can be substantial.
Dental veneers use two main materials: composite or ceramic. Composite is less expensive but has a shorter lifespan, while ceramic veneers, particularly those made from zirconia, offer better durability and a more natural appearance.
