There’s nothing quite like a beautiful smile to make you feel good about yourself. Whether you’re looking to correct some minor imperfections or seek a total smile makeover, dental veneers can help.
At Drs. Nicolas & Asp Centers, we offer custom-crafted porcelain and cosmetic veneers in Dubai to transform your teeth into a natural, radiant, and confident smile. Whether you want to fix chips, gaps, discoloration, or asymmetry— veneers can make a big difference.
At Drs. Nicolas & Asp, we provide both porcelain and composite veneers, depending on your needs and aesthetic goals.
Porcelain veneers are crafted from high-strength ceramics like Emax or hand-layered feldspathic porcelain—offer superior durability, stain resistance, and a lifelike translucency that closely mimics natural enamel. They are often the treatment of choice for patients seeking a comprehensive and transformative smile makeover.
Composite veneers, on the other hand, are made from tooth-colored resin and are sculpted directly onto your teeth in a single visit. This technique is more affordable and minimally invasive, making it ideal for addressing smaller imperfections quickly and effectively. Both types of veneers are designed to seamlessly blend with your natural teeth, helping you achieve a confident and radiant smile.
Feldspathic veneers are crafted from a glass-like ceramic material containing feldspar, a natural mineral. This composition lends feldspathic veneers their exceptional translucency, allowing for a lifelike appearance that beautifully mimics the natural color and light-reflecting properties of teeth.
Emax veneers are crafted from lithium disilicate, a highly durable ceramic material. Made of pressed ceramic crafted in a dental lab, Emax veneers are known for their exceptional strength, versatility, and lifelike appearance.
Zirconia veneers are crafted in a dental lab from zirconium dioxide, a highly durable ceramic material known for its strength and resistance to fractures. While slightly less translucent than porcelain, zirconia veneers offer a natural appearance and exceptional longevity.
Composite veneers are sculpted directly on the tooth using a tooth-colored resin material, the same material used in dental fillings. While less expensive than porcelain, they may not be as durable or stain-resistant.
With over 30 years of experience and a reputation built on trust, Drs. Nicolas & Asp Centers offers a seamless, high-quality veneers experience—from consultation to final placement—all under one roof, including our own in-house dental lab.
Veneers are an excellent option for adults who want to enhance the appearance of their smile without undergoing extensive dental work. You may be a good candidate for veneers if:
A consultation with one of our cosmetic dentists or specialist prosthodontists will help determine if veneers are right for you—and which type best suits your needs.
With proper care, porcelain veneers can last 10 to 20 years or more. They are highly durable, stain-resistant, and designed for long-term aesthetics and function.
Composite veneers, while more affordable and minimally invasive, typically last 5 to 7 years and may require occasional polishing or touch-ups.
To protect your veneers—especially if you grind your teeth at night—we may recommend a custom night guard to prevent unnecessary wear or damage. Routine dental visits and good oral hygiene are also key to extending their lifespan.
A smile makeover with porcelain or feldspathic veneers can do more than transform the overall aesthetics of your teeth and gums. It can also boost your confidence and self-esteem. A smile makeover can address a variety of cosmetic concerns, such as discolored, crooked, misshaped, or gapped teeth.
Absolutely. Porcelain veneers are versatile and can be made to match the color of your natural teeth.
Once you decide to go ahead and get your veneers, you'll generally need two more appointments. The first involves 'prepping' your teeth, where a small amount of tooth structure is removed (similar to the thickness of contact lenses), and we place temporary veneers on your teeth. On your second visit, we will remove your temporaries and bond your final veneers.
Typically, a small amount of your tooth's enamel is removed to prepare it for veneers. This is done to ensure a proper fit, establish a strong bond, and create a natural appearance that blends seamlessly with the rest of your teeth.
This is a common misconception that puts off people from getting their teeth done. Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin and are designed to look and function like your natural teeth. When done by the right dentist and the right lab, your veneers won’t look bulky at all.
No, porcelain veneers are resistant to staining. Porcelain does not absorb stains the way our teeth enamel does.
No, veneers themselves cannot get cavities because they are made of materials that don't decay. However, your natural tooth structure underneath the veneer is still susceptible to decay. It's important that you brush your teeth gently and regularly with fluoride toothpaste twice a day and floss at least once a day.
Maintaining your veneers is pretty much like caring for your natural teeth. Regular oral hygiene practices, including daily brushing and flossing, along with routine dental check-ups, are essential. Avoid excessive force on your veneers, such as cracking shells or nuts, or biting on hard objects. You may be advised to wear a night guard to protect your veneers from damage.
Yes, you can redo your veneers if you are unhappy with them. Consult with a qualified cosmetic dentist to discuss your concerns, share the reason for your dissatisfaction, and explore the best options for your specific situation.
