Angel Veneer for a patient who wanted a pointed canine shape and whiter teeth without tooth preparation
CASE 15
Angel Veneer
BEFORE
AFTER
- Treatment
- Ultra-thin ceramic shells (Angel Veneer) were bonded to the tooth surfaces with a dental adhesive, without tooth preparation in this case.
The veneers were designed to create the pointed canine shape requested by the patient and to lighten the tooth color. - Duration & visits
- Duration: about 2 weeks to 1 month
Number of visits: 2–3 (impression → fitting)
(*Given as a general guide) - Cost
- ¥132,000 per tooth (tax included)
- Risks & side effects
- Because the 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 an ultrathin material is used, it may crack or come off from a strong impact or unconscious clenching. Depending on the condition of your bite, this treatment may not be suitable.
