Porcelain Veneers at Seoul Lab Dental Clinic (Uijeongbu)
If stains, chips, or uneven edges are holding your smile back, porcelain veneers can deliver a bright, balanced, and natural-looking result in just a few visits. At Seoul Lab Dental Clinic, we use an enamel-first, conservative approach—custom ceramics designed around your face, lips, and bite for a confident, long-lasting smile.
What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin ceramic shells bonded to the front of your teeth to refine color, shape, length, and symmetry. Modern ceramics mimic enamel’s translucency, so results look fresh, not fake—perfect for the “front-row” teeth you show when you talk and smile.
Who’s a Good Candidate?
- Stubborn discoloration not responding to whitening
- Small chips, worn edges, or minor spacing/rotation
- Old fillings or mismatched bonding on front teeth
- Healthy gums and a stable bite (we’ll check both at consult)
If you have active gum disease, severe crowding, or heavy grinding, we’ll address those first or adapt your plan.
Benefits at a Glance
- Natural aesthetics: layered ceramics with lifelike translucency
- Color stability: resists stains better than composite bonding
- Conservative prep: enamel-first; micro-prep only where needed
- Predictable: digital smile design and try-in previews before bonding

Longevity & Care
- Daily brushing/flossing; use non-abrasive toothpaste
- Nightguard recommended for clenching/grinding
- Routine hygiene and veneer checkups keep margins pristine
- Avoid using teeth to open packages; be cautious with very hard foods
Risks & Considerations
- Some cases require minimal prep to avoid bulk and control color
- Veneers can chip under excessive force or untreated bruxism
- Very dark underlying teeth or major misalignment may need a combined approach (whitening/orthodontics or crowns where indicated)
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my teeth be shaved a lot?
No—our approach is conservative. If micro-prep is needed, we’ll explain and preview it before proceeding.
Do veneers look bulky or fake?
With proper planning and thin, layered ceramics, veneers look natural and refined, not thick.
Should I whiten before veneers?
Often yes. We create a brighter baseline with whitening, then match veneer shade to your ideal color.
How many veneers do I need?
Commonly 4–10 for the visible smile zone; we’ll tailor the number to your goals and budget.

You’ll receive transparent pricing after your smile analysis and mock-up. Our English-friendly team coordinates appointments for expats and travelers and can compress visits if you’re on a tight schedule.
