What are the most common dental veneers in Singapore?
Porcelain, zirconia, and composite resin are the commonly used materials in dental restorations and cosmetic dentistry, including veneers, crowns, bridges, and inlays or onlays. These materials are all biocompatible, meaning they are well-tolerated by the human body and rarely cause any adverse reactions. All three materials can be closely matched to the shade of natural teeth, and durable enough to withstand the wear and tear of daily activities such as biting and chewing. However, porcelain veneers have distinct advantages in terms of resembling natural teeth, stain resistance, and pricing.

What if I don’t know the smile I want?
Technology allows us to design a natural look to help complement your features.
During your visit, we’ll take x-rays, digital 3D scans, photographs and videos to get a baseline of your teeth and facial form.
This helps us create a new smile that looks natural, and complements your features, personality and skin tone. From there,
the Smile Makeover team will digitally design your smile while taking into account the established relationship between
your speech, teeth, lips and smile. This is done using CAD and CAM technology and modeling software.
