About The Video
Dr. Justin dives into the common issue of composite veneers that have worn down, stained, or been poorly applied. He explains why removing these veneers is more challenging than it seems and shows the step-by-step process used in his clinic to carefully protect natural teeth. Viewers will also learn how improper bonding can cause staining, tooth decay, and gum inflammation if left untreated.
Unlike porcelain veneers that can be removed effectively with laser veneer removal, composite veneers require a manual approach under high magnification. Dr. Justin shows how he removes the layers safely using fine drills, ultrasonic instruments, and polishing techniques.
Composite veneer removal is a delicate process that requires both skill and patience. Unlike porcelain veneers, which can often be removed using laser veneer removal, composite veneers bond tightly to the tooth, making them more difficult to extract. Improperly done veneers can stain, break down, and even trap bacteria, leading to gum inflammation or early signs of decay.
Dr. Justin emphasizes the importance of using high magnification and careful instruments to protect the natural tooth during removal. The process includes drilling away the bulk, using ultrasonic scalers, and polishing the surface to minimize damage. While minor surface scratches may occur, meticulous polishing ensures a smooth finish, leaving patients satisfied and confident in their restored, healthy-looking teeth.
