Cheryl Cole and Simon Cowell have entered the elite with their Hollywood smile, thanks to a little help with veneers.
The procedure has proven popular with a whole host of celebrities, despite the damage it causes to your own teeth.
But thanks to a new discovery, we can have a Hollywood smile without the cost of our own natural teeth.
In the quest for the perfect smile with veneers comes permanent tooth damage due to preparative methods used to create traditional porcelain veneers and porcelain crowns.
The process requires the natural teeth to be filed down in preparation, but with the introduction of composite veneers permanent tooth damage has become a thing of the past.
Composite veneers provide a safe and non-damaging method to achieve the perfect smile. The procedure can be carried out on natural teeth or can be whitened to a desired shade before the composite veneers are added.
After the teeth are prepared without any drilling or filing, the composite material is then matched to the desired shade and applied to the front surfaces of the teeth. Once applied the composite veneer can be reshaped to any size and can be contoured to mask any imperfections.
The process is completely reversible and will not damage the teeth, so users are able to 'go-back' to their original teeth should they wish. This simple process also means that should you wish to have a whiter smile in the future, you can simple replace with composite veneers with a lighter shade.
Dr. Darfoor, founder of The Darfoor Dental Practice, Harley Street comments: “I have been carrying out such enhancements for over a decade with excellent results and longevity and I have no hesitation in recommending such treatments.”
After 8 -12 years, the composite veneers will need to be replaced, whereby the composite is removed without damaging the existing tooth enamel and new composite of the desired shape rebound onto the tooth surface.
