There's a two-part answer to this question. The first answer is—yes. Porcelain veneers in Medina are considered a permanent treatment because they require our dentists to remove a small portion of tooth enamel for proper placement.
However, composite veneers, also called dental bonding, are considered a temporary cosmetic technique because we're adding material to the tooth and not permanently altering the enamel.
What Is Composite Bonding?
Dental bonding uses composite resin, the same material used for tooth-colored fillings, to repair some of the same concerns that porcelain veneers do.
- Gaps between teeth
- Tooth size or shape discrepancies
- Worn teeth
- Tooth discoloration
- Broken or chipped teeth
Our dentists can customize composite material to match your teeth, which complements your smile when we bond it to your tooth.
Dental bonding is an efficient and affordable procedure that we can typically complete in one visit. It tends to cost less than porcelain veneers.
