Composite Veneers in Korea, Seoul

Composite veneers are tooth-colored resin layers artistically sculpted on the tooth surface to improve color, shape, and symmetry—often in a single visit. They’re budget-friendly, conservative, and reversible-leaning compared with porcelain.

Who’s a Good Candidate?

• Mild discoloration, chipped edges, small gaps
• Slight asymmetry or uneven tooth lengths
• You want same-day results with a lower cost than porcelain
• Healthy gums, good oral hygiene, realistic expectations

For darker teeth, heavy wear, or bigger rotations, porcelain/ultra-thin veneers or clear aligners may be recommended.

Composite vs. Porcelain Veneers (Quick Compare)

• Prep: Composite is usually no-prep or micro-prep; porcelain may need more shaping
• Speed: Composite can be same day; porcelain typically 7–14 days (lab work)
• Aesthetics: Porcelain offers the most lifelike translucency; composite is very good but slightly less glass-like
• Durability: Porcelain 10–15+ yrs; composite 3–7 yrs (depends on care)
• Maintenance: Composite may need polish/repairs over time; porcelain is more stain-resistant
• Cost: Composite is significantly cheaper per tooth

Treatment Process (Seoul Timeline)

2. Smile Mock-Up (Optional) – temporary preview of length/contours
3. Bonding & Sculpting (Same Day) – enamel cleaned, resin layered and shaped
4. Finishing & Polish – high-gloss surface, bite alignment check
5. Review & Aftercare – home-care plan; optional night guard if you grind

FAQs

• Will my teeth be shaved?
  Usually no—composite is additive and conservative; minor micro-prep may be used for adhesion/shape.
• Do composites stain?
  More than porcelain, less than natural enamel when maintained. Regular hygiene and periodic polishing keep them bright.
• Can I switch to porcelain later?
  Yes. Composite is a great trial smile; you can convert to porcelain in the future.
• How many teeth should I treat?
  Depends on your smile display—often 2–8 front teeth for symmetry.
• Same-day possible?
  Yes—many cases finish in one visit, depending on the number of teeth and complexity.
