Resin Dental VeneersExplained
Resin (composite) veneers are tooth-coloured shells sculpted directly onto your teeth in a single 1–2 hour visit to correct chips, gaps, and discolouration, lasting several years with regular check-ups and polishing.
At Adelaide Cosmetic Dentistry in Unley, Dr Roshanak Amrein places them with little or no enamel removal, making them a reversible, affordable alternative to porcelain (costing between $300-$800 per tooth).
