The truth about veneers

In a world where perfect smiles light up every screen, faccette have become one of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments. But beyond the celebrity transformations and social media hype, what’s the real story behind veneers?
Here’s everything you need to know before making the decision.

😁 What Are Dental Veneers?

Faccette are ultra-thin shells made of porcelain or composite resin that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth.
They instantly transform the color, shape, size, and alignment of your teeth — creating that flawless, camera-ready smile.

🦷 Types of Veneers

Faccette in porcellana
- Durable, stain-resistant, and mimic the natural translucency of teeth.
- Last 10–15 years with proper care.
Composite Veneers
- Made from resin material (similar to dental fillings).
- More affordable but less durable — typically last 4–6 years.
No-Prep Veneers (Lumineers)
- Require minimal enamel removal.
- Thinner and reversible in some cases.

💎 The Benefits of Veneers

Instantly whiten and brighten your smile
Correct uneven, chipped, or small teeth
Close minor gaps between teeth
Boost confidence and self-esteem
Long-lasting with proper dental care

A Clinica Medico, our specialists design veneers that look natural — not artificial — using digital smile design and 3D scanning for precision.

⚠️ The Hidden Truth: What Most People Don’t Tell You

While veneers offer stunning results, they’re not for everyone.
Here’s what you should know before saying yes:

It’s a Permanent Change – A thin layer of enamel must be removed, meaning the process is irreversible.
Requires Healthy Teeth – Veneers can’t fix decay or gum disease; your teeth must be healthy first.
They Can Chip – While durable, veneers can crack if you bite hard objects or grind your teeth.
Cost Factor – Porcelain veneers are an investment — but their longevity and aesthetics make them worth it.
