Composite veneers: immediate and natural aesthetics in Valencia

A beautiful smile should not require sacrificing your teeth. At Albert and Barber we achieve visible changes in a single session, without grinding the enamel, with a natural finish and texture.

What are composite veneers?

Composite veneers are thin layers of esthetic resin that are applied directly to the tooth and hardened with a light. The material is layered and shaped to control opacity, color and microtexture, achieving a natural integration with the rest of the smile.

Unlike other options, the process is quick and, in most cases, does not require anesthesia.

When are they recommended?

• Closing diastemas (small spaces between teeth).

• Correct microfractures or worn edges.

• Improve shape and color conservatively.

• Try an esthetic change before opting for porcelain.

Duration and maintenance

The average life of the composite is 5-7 years, conditioned by habits and hygiene.
Porcelain lasts longer, but the composite is less invasive and easily repaired.

Simple care:

• Brushing 2×/day with non-abrasive paste.

• Avoid biting ice/nails and moderate coffee, tea, red wine, etc.

• Revision and polishing every 6 months to maintain brightness and color.

• If a stain or microfracture appears, it is solved in the office without replacing the entire veneer.
