DENTAL VENEERS
Transforming smiles. Preserving identity.
Custom veneers to harmonize shape, proportion, and color, resulting in a natural look designed just for you.
A beautiful smile starts with healthy teeth.
Transform without compromising.
Dental veneers can correct alterations in color, shape, proportion, wear, fractures, and minor misalignments, creating a more harmonious and natural smile.
But transforming a smile doesn't necessarily mean wearing down your teeth.
At The Velvet Touch Clinic , each case is studied individually to preserve as much enamel and healthy tooth structure as possible, prioritizing minimally invasive approaches and very conservative preparations — or, when clinically possible, no preparation at all.
The goal is to achieve an aesthetically exceptional smile, meticulously designed to harmonize shape, proportion, texture, translucency, and color with the unique features of your face.
An extraordinary smile begins by preserving what is already yours.
WHAT CAN WE TRANSFORM?
SMALL ALTERATIONS. BIG CHANGES IN THE SMILE.
Not all smiles require the same transformation. In some cases, minor corrections are sufficient; in others, a more comprehensive approach allows for the reconstruction of proportions, balance, and harmony, while always preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible.
DENTES MAIS BRANCOS
Uniformizar dentes escurecidos, manchados ou com alterações de cor, alcançando uma tonalidade mais luminosa, uniforme e natural.
A MORE HARMONIOUS SMILE
Melhorar forma, comprimento e proporções dentárias para criar maior equilíbrio entre os dentes, o sorriso e o rosto.
CLOSING GAPS BETWEEN TEETH
Corrigir diastemas e pequenos espaços entre os dentes, criando continuidade e maior harmonia no sorriso.
To restore worn or fractured teeth.
Reconstructing worn, chipped, or fractured teeth, restoring shape, proportion, and aesthetics without losing their natural appearance.
Natural enough that no one would ask.
Beautiful enough for everyone to notice.
An exceptional smile should not appear artificial. It should draw attention for its harmony, brightness, and naturalness.
Each veneer is individually designed. Shape, length, proportions, texture, translucency, and color are carefully defined to create a smile that harmonizes with the face and enhances each patient's features.
We analyze the smile as a whole: the exposure of the teeth when smiling, the contour of the lips, the facial proportions, and the relationship between each element are considered before defining the final design.
Because the best veneers don't look like veneers. They simply look like extraordinarily beautiful teeth.
THE DAY YOU DECIDE TO TRANSFORM YOUR SMILE
It all starts with a conversation. Not with a treatment.
Every smile has a different story, anatomy, and goals. That's why the first consultation isn't just about evaluating your teeth. It's about understanding the desired outcome and determining the most conservative way to achieve it.
We analyze your smile, face, bite, and available tooth structure. From there, we define an individualized approach, seeking to preserve as much healthy tooth tissue as possible.
Whenever indicated, we use clinical photographs, digital planning, and mock-ups, allowing you to visualize and experiment with the proposed design before making any final preparations.
First we plan. Then we transform.
PLANNING MAY INCLUDE
Because predictability begins before the first facet.

Every smile has different needs.
Different approaches. The same commitment: to preserve.
There is no single way to transform a smile.
Each person has a different anatomy, amount of enamel, bite, and goals. Therefore, the treatment must adapt to the teeth—and not the teeth to the treatment.
In some cases, it is possible to perform veneers with minimal preparation or even without any tooth reduction. In others, carefully planned preparation is necessary to achieve the desired aesthetic and functional result.
The best technique is always the one that allows you to achieve an exceptional result while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible .

How does the treatment proceed?
From your first consultation to your new smile.
1. Avaliação e Planeamento
Tudo começa com uma avaliação detalhada do sorriso, saúde oral, mordida e estrutura dentária. Definimos os objetivos do tratamento, selecionamos o tipo de faceta mais adequado e planeamos uma abordagem personalizada e conservadora.
2. MOCK-UP E PREPARAÇÃO CONSERVADORA
Sempre que indicado, o mock-up permite experimentar o desenho do novo sorriso antes de avançar. Quando é necessária preparação dentária, removemos apenas a estrutura estritamente necessária, procurando preservar o máximo possível de esmalte natural. De seguida, realizamos o registo ou digitalização para a produção das facetas.
3. TEST AND CEMENTATION
Before final cementation, we carefully evaluate the fit, shape, proportions, color, and integration of the veneers with the smile and face. Only after validating the result do we proceed to cementation.
4. Adjustments and Monitoring
After placement, we check the bite, make any necessary adjustments, and establish a follow-up and maintenance plan to preserve oral health and the result over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Not always.
