What is teeth whitening with composite veneers?
Teeth composite is a paste-like material made from synthetic resins by various companies. This material was previously used as a dental restorative to repair cavities. Today, this tooth-colored material is used to fix the appearance of teeth, including their discoloration.
The low price of composite, along with its advantages like good strength, resistance, and the ability to be quickly applied, has made it one of the most popular methods for teeth whitening.
If you are considering dental treatment in Dubai, specifically for whitening, this could be an ideal option for your needs.

How does composite whiten teeth?
The dentist places this material on the tooth and shapes it according to the tooth’s form, securing it with laser light. After that, it’s polished with special sandpapers, giving it a natural appearance.
The composite covers the tooth, addressing defects, including discoloration. If the stain intensity is high, the dentist may scrape the tooth surface to remove some discoloration before applying a thicker composite layer for better coverage.
