When it comes to cosmetic enhancement of the teeth, both Dental Veneers and Dental Bonding has an important role to play. These cosmetic treatment help to mask the flaws in your teeth and beautify them. The process of application is quite similar for both treatments. However, the difference lies in the output achieved and the way these treatments can be used for a smile makeover. This article gives you a brief idea on how dental bonding and dental veneers are quite different from each other.

Dental Veneers
Dental Veneers are made of thin shell of porcelain material. They are accurately fabricated and are the most widely recommended form of treatment for smile makeover. This procedure helps to transform the appearance of visible front teeth and deliver an attractive smile. Gapped teeth, misalignment, misshapen teeth and discoloration can all be corrected with a smile makeover. In this process, a small amount of enamel from the front teeth is used and an acrylic is formed to beautify the teeth. The process covers both badly structured teeth and the ones surrounding them. Permanent veneers are made in the lab and the process takes up to 3 visits for completion. The result obtained is highly appreciated since porcelain has the ability to reflect more light.

Dental Bonding
Composite resin is used for the dental bonding procedure and it is applied to fix chipped teeth, short teeth, gaps between the teeth and minor misalignment. The resin is hardened using a special light. The entire process takes a single visit and the output received is excellent. Our experienced dentists take care of the entire process. This process is generally advised when there are errors in one or two teeth. The material applied can be stained over a period of time, therefore proper care must be taken to protect it from chipping off.

Though, both the forms of treatment are recommended for cosmetic enhancement of your teeth, there is no evidence that says one is better than the other. Both hold equal importance, the difference lies only in the way it is conducted.
