Porcelain veneers, the big change in smile!
The search for aesthetic rehabilitation of the smile has increasingly popularized treatments with porcelain veneers. With the objective of correcting the color and shape of the teeth, the technique also known as ceramic laminates works with materials with different compositions, specific manufacturing techniques and variations in thickness, which also leads to the treatment being called dental contact lenses.
This type of treatment is the most used by celebrities and artists in the construction of white and harmonic smiles.

Therefore, the search for a trained, skilled and empathetic professional is essential for the success of the case.
