What Is the Difference Between No-Prep, Minimal-Prep and Traditional Veneers?
All three use thin porcelain shells bonded to the front of your teeth. The difference is how much enamel is removed first.
| Type | Enamel removed | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| No-prep veneers | 0 mm | Small gaps, short or worn edges, mild shape changes |
| Minimal-prep veneers | 0.1 to 0.3 mm | Colour change, mild crowding, uneven shape |
| Traditional veneers | 0.5 to 0.8 mm | Dark stains, big shape or size changes |
Which Ultra-Thin Veneer Materials Are Used for Minimal Prep Smiles in Turkey?
E-max (lithium disilicate)

How Do Minimal-Prep Veneers Work and Am I a Good Candidate?
- Free photo review (before you travel). Send smile photos on WhatsApp and get a plan and quote.
- Day 1: scan and design. 3D scan, X-rays, shade choice and a digital preview of your new smile.
- Day 1 to 2: gentle prep. Light polishing only (0 to 0.3 mm). Temporary veneers are fitted if needed.
- Day 4 to 5: try-in. You approve the shape and colour before final bonding.
- Day 5 to 7: final bonding. Veneers are bonded, bite is checked and you get your care kit.
You’re likely a great fit if:
- Your teeth are healthy and fairly straight
- You want whiter, evener or slightly longer teeth
- You have small gaps or minor chips
You may need another option if: teeth are very dark, badly crowded or protruding, or you have gum disease. Then a Hollywood smile makeover or composite bonding may suit you better.
Do
- Brush twice and floss daily
- Wear a night guard if you grind
- Visit for a check-up every 6 months
Don’t
- Bite nails, pens or hard sweets
- Use your teeth as tools
- Skip aftercare checks
