The Step-by-Step Process for No-Prep Veneers in Nowon: How Does It Work?

What Are the Steps in the No-Prep Veneer Process in Nowon?

Because you try on a temporary veneer first, you can see the expected look before deciding whether to go ahead.

No-prep veneers are done in four steps: diagnosis, scanning, making a temporary veneer, and a try-in decision. The flow of this method is that you see the result with your own eyes before it is bonded, and only then decide whether to have it attached. It works a bit like trying on a pair of glasses before you buy them — you check the result first, then decide.

1. Veneer diagnosis: The clinic reviews a pre-visit questionnaire and a detailed consultation to judge whether no-prep is suitable.
2. 3D intraoral scanner: Your teeth are scanned digitally.
3. Making a temporary veneer: A temporary version is made with the same thickness and appearance as the final one.
4. Try-in and decide: You try it on in your mouth, check the result, and decide whether to have it bonded.

What Do You Do at Each Step?

In the last of the four steps — the try-in decision — you personally decide whether to have the veneers bonded.

At each step, what the clinic does and what you check or decide are kept separate. Knowing what is decided at which step makes it easier to judge whether to go ahead.

No-Prep or Minimal-Prep: When Does It Come Down to Each?

Whether to go with no-prep or minimal-prep is decided at the diagnosis stage, based on your tooth condition.

No-prep is the default, but depending on your tooth condition, removing just a minimal 0.1–0.3mm can sometimes give a better result. Which approach to take is decided at the diagnosis stage, and if minimal removal is needed, you are told in advance. It is best to decide after visiting for a consultation.

What Should You Ask Beforehand in the Consultation?

Whether no-prep suits you, and what is decided at which step, varies depending on your tooth condition. Preparing questions before the consultation helps you understand the explanation and decide whether to go ahead.

• For my tooth condition, is no-prep or minimal-prep the right choice?
• When is the step where I try on the temporary veneer, and what should I look for then?
• If I decide not to go ahead now, what state will my teeth be left in?
• How many visits does it take to reach bonding, and what happens at each visit?
