Transform your smile with ultra thin, natural-looking ceramic veneers
Quick answer
Veneers are ultra-thin porcelain or composite shells bonded to the front of your teeth to improve colour, chips, gaps and shape. At Kapoor's Safe Hands Dental in Sushant Lok, Gurgaon, we start with a digital smile design so you can preview the result, and porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 15 years with good care.
| Best for | Colour, chips, gaps and tooth shape |
|---|---|
| Visits | Porcelain usually two, composite one |
| Preparation | A thin layer of enamel is shaped for porcelain |
| Lifespan | Porcelain typically 10 to 15 years with care |
| Reversible | Composite mostly, porcelain no |
Veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells, typically porcelain or ceramic, bonded to the front surface of your teeth. Unlike whitening, which only addresses color, veneers can simultaneously correct shape, alignment, chips, and gaps in a single treatment, giving an instantly transformed smile.
Discolored or stained teeth that don't respond well to whitening
Chipped, cracked, or uneven tooth edges
Small gaps between front teeth
Minor alignment or shape irregularities
Patients wanting a complete smile makeover without orthodontics
Porcelain veneers: highly durable with a natural, light-reflective finish similar to real enamel
Composite veneers: a faster, more conservative option for minor corrections
Treatment typically involves an initial consultation and smile design, minimal preparation of the tooth surface, precise digital impressions, and custom fabrication of your veneers, followed by a comfortable bonding appointment.

Minimally invasive tooth preparation to preserve natural enamel

Veneers starts from ₹12,000 per tooth depending on the material chosen (composite vs. porcelain) and the number of teeth being treated.
A brighter, symmetrical, and natural looking smile with results that typically last 10 to 15 years with proper care.
Porcelain veneers resist stains well and tend to last longer. They're made in a lab, which means two visits, and a very thin layer of enamel is usually shaped to make room for them. Composite veneers are built directly on the tooth in one visit, need less shaping and can be repaired easily, but they pick up stains and wear sooner. If you're deciding between veneers and simple bonding, our blog post on veneers versus composite bonding walks through it.
Step 1: A smile analysis and photos. We look at tooth shape, colour, gum line and how the smile sits with your face.
Step 2: A digital design or trial so you can see the planned result and suggest changes.
Step 3: Minimal shaping of the tooth surface, with local anaesthesia so you're comfortable.
Step 4: An impression or scan, and temporary veneers while the final ones are made.
Step 5: Fitting and bonding, then a careful check of your bite and the finish.
Step 6: A follow-up to make sure everything feels right.
Veneers need healthy teeth and gums to hold on to. If your teeth are quite crowded, aligners or braces may need to come first. If you grind your teeth, a night guard protects your veneers from chipping. Also, veneers don't respond to whitening, so if you'd like a lighter shade, whiten your natural teeth first or choose the veneer shade with that in mind. Because a thin layer of enamel is removed for porcelain veneers, the change to your tooth is permanent.
Brush and floss as you normally would, using a non-abrasive toothpaste
Don't bite nails, ice, pens or hard food with the front teeth
Wear a night guard if you grind
Go easy on strongly coloured drinks if you have composite veneers
Keep your check-ups and professional polishing
