They are porcelain structures with a thickness of approximately 0.5 mm, prepared by minimal, stepless abrasion on only the front surface of the tooth. Although they are very thin, they cannot be separated from the tooth after they are bonded, they are only cut off.
Laminas are perfect systems that provide maximum aesthetics with minimum material loss from the tooth.
Since there is no metal support in the infrastructure, their light transmittance is like natural teeth and the porcelains used never change color.
In neon lights and photographic flashes, they give the same image as the natural tooth. Since the operation is performed only on the front surface of the teeth in lamina veneers, the tongue is in contact with the natural tooth, so there is absolutely no feeling of a foreign substance.
It is not possible to separate the laminates from the tooth after bonding, so they are very resistant to breakage.
