Composite vs Porcelain Veneers

Smile Makeover replacing old Composite Bonding with Porcelain Veneers and Gum Contouring

In this comprehensive smile makeover, we replaced the patient’s old composite veneers with handcrafted ceramic veneers and performed precise gingival contouring to enhance the overall harmony of the smile.

The original composite veneers had become discolored and lacked the natural light reflection seen in healthy enamel. In addition, the uneven gum line disrupted the balance and symmetry of the smile. To address this, we performed a conservative gingivectomy and crown lengthening procedure to level the gingival margins, creating a more proportionate and aesthetically pleasing foundation for the new veneers.

The new ceramic veneers offer not only a superior aesthetic outcome—closely mimicking the translucency and texture of natural teeth—but also significantly greater longevity and resistance to staining. Thanks to their high-quality materials and minimally invasive preparation, these restorations will maintain their beauty and function for many years.

This case exemplifies how an interdisciplinary approach—combining periodontal refinement with advanced cosmetic restorations—can deliver exceptional, long-lasting results tailored to the patient’s facial features and smile dynamics.
