Composite veneers are the direct route to smile aesthetics: the material is hand-shaped to the tooth, layered by color and polished, all in a single session and usually without anesthesia or enamel preparation. They cost €280 per tooth and are the right choice for targeted corrections or for those who want an immediate result with a limited budget. Compared to ceramics, they last less and require more maintenance: we will explain this to you with the same clarity with which we propose them.

How the session takes place
After choosing the color on the chromatic scale, the tooth is prepared with an adhesive process and the composite applied in layers, modeled and polymerized with a dedicated lamp. The final polishing closes the session. One tooth takes approximately one hour; multiple teeth are treated on the same day.
- No impressions, no provisionals, no second appointments required
- Often without anesthesia and without filing the enamel
- Result visible in the mirror before you leave
Advantages and limitations, clearly stated
Advantages: lower cost, almost total reversibility, immediate repairability if it chips, time required for one session. Limitations: composite polishes less over time, can absorb pigments from coffee, tea and smoke, and lasts less on average than ceramics.

Who is it suitable for?
Small chipping of the margins, spaces between the front teeth, conical or irregularly shaped teeth, localized discolouration. It is not the solution for very compromised teeth or for those who grind hard: in those cases we offer you alternatives and explain the reason in the written plan.
Maintenance over time
We recommend professional polishing at periodic checks: it keeps the surface shiny and extends the life of the veneer. Small chips can be repaired by adding composite, without redoing everything. The clinic's guarantee on aesthetic restorations covers 5 years.
