Dental veneers in TTDI

Veneers are thin shells bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their colour, shape and appearance. They can cover or improve discolouration, chips, gaps or slightly uneven teeth. There are two main kinds: composite veneers, shaped from tooth-coloured resin directly on your teeth, and porcelain veneers, made to fit your teeth and bonded at a later visit.

Composite veneers cost less and can usually be repaired or added to. Porcelain is generally more stain-resistant and tends to last longer. Your dentist explains the options for your teeth and goals, and recommends the one that suits you.

It depends on the material, your bite and how you care for them. Composite veneers usually need repairs or replacement sooner than porcelain. Avoiding biting hard objects, wearing a night guard if you grind your teeth, and regular check-ups help them last. Your dentist explains what to expect for your teeth.

Porcelain veneers usually need a thin layer of enamel removed, which cannot be undone. A local anaesthetic can be used. Composite veneers often need little or no removal of enamel. Some people have short-lived sensitivity afterwards. Your dentist explains what your treatment involves before you start.

Veneers may suit you if you want to improve chips, gaps, stains or slightly uneven teeth, and your teeth and gums are healthy: decay or gum disease is treated first. Book a consultation so the dentist can assess your teeth, discuss your goals and explain appropriate options.

Composite veneers are RM250 per tooth and porcelain veneers RM1,500 per tooth. How many teeth are treated, and any preparation they need, is confirmed at your consultation, where your dentist gives you a personalised quote. We take card instalments and Atome.
