- Treatment
- About 0.1–0.5mm of the tooth surface was prepared before bonding thin ceramic shells (Angel Veneer).
No anesthetic was used in this case, and little pain was reported.
The patient chose the Super White shade for a whiter appearance with translucency. - Duration & visits
- Duration: about 2 weeks to 1 month
Number of visits: 2–3 (impression → fitting)
*Veneers change the appearance of teeth; they do not move the teeth as orthodontic treatment does. - Cost
- ¥110,000–165,000 per tooth (tax included)
(*Varies depending on the number of teeth and the grade of material) - Risks & side effects
- Because ceramic is bonded onto the tooth, it adds a small amount to the thickness of the original tooth (you may notice some discomfort until you get used to it).
Because ultrathin ceramic is used, it may crack or come off if strong force is applied. Depending on your bite, this treatment may not be suitable.
