Composite Veneers or Ferrari Smile
The Ferrari Smile can provide you a beautiful, confident and unique smile. It gives you an immediate result in only one session. The composite veneer covers the facial surface of teeth to change tooth color, position or shapes.
The Ferrari Smile technique allows an aesthetic, natural appearance with simplified layering and color satisfaction.
The composite veneers can be used on people of all ages and unlike porcelain veneers If they break it can be repaired by just patching the dental bonding in that portion of the veneer where the fracture has occurred. Although repair is easier with dental composite veneers, their need for maintenance might be necessary.
How the Ferrari Smile Is Built — Layer by Layer
Composite veneers are sculpted directly onto the tooth, not ordered from a factory. We bond a nanohybrid composite resin in thin increments — an opaque dentin layer for body, then enamel and translucent layers on top — and light-cure each one before adding the next. Built this way the veneer carries real depth and a polychromatic, life-like translucency instead of one flat shade. The surface is then shaped, contoured and polished to a high, enamel-like luster. In the truest sense it is hand-made dentistry — an artist’s work, tooth by tooth.
Additive, Minimally Invasive, Reversible
The Ferrari Smile is an additive technique. In most cases little or no tooth structure is removed, and with our WaterLase laser often none at all — no drilling, no needle, no pain. Because nothing is cut away, the approach stays conservative and, when needed, reversible. If a composite ever chips, it is repaired chairside by re-bonding only that section — no full replacement, no laboratory, no second impression.
Direct or Indirect — and How It Differs from Porcelain
There are two ways to place a composite veneer. Direct: built and finished in the mouth in a single visit, for an immediate result. Indirect: shaped first in our Smile Infinity laboratory, then bonded for extra precision on complex cases. Composite differs from porcelain by design. E.max and porcelain veneers are stronger, fully stain-resistant and longer-lasting, pressed or milled in the lab; composite is faster, single-visit and easily repaired, but rewards a little more upkeep and the occasional polish to stay bright. We match the material to the patient — not every smile needs the same answer. And when a patient later wants the permanence of ceramic, the very same design carries over into E.max or our ZEvolution German-technology veneers.
The Bond That Holds It
Strength in composite work comes from the adhesive interface, not bulk. The enamel is selectively etched, a bonding resin is applied and cured, and each composite increment is chemically and micro-mechanically locked to the tooth. Done correctly the margin is invisible and the restoration flexes and functions as part of your own enamel. For ceramic restorations we step up the cement accordingly — Ultra-Bond Plus by DenMat for porcelain veneers, and Variolink by Ivoclar for zirconium crowns.
One Plan for the Perfect Smile
A beautiful smile is rarely one procedure. We design the result digitally and preview it with a smile mock-up before any resin is placed. If the gums show too much, laser gummy-smile correction reshapes the frame in the same plan. If the lips need balance, our Smile Infinity plastic and dermatology department refines them. Everything is coordinated with our own CAD/CAM and 3D-printing workflow in the Smile Infinity laboratory — teeth, gums and lips designed as one face.
Every case is led by Dr. Habib Zarifeh — International Cosmetic Dentist and Dental Implants Surgeon, Head of Oral Surgery at CMC Hospital Beirut (affiliated with Johns Hopkins International), MSc in Laser Dentistry, RWTH Aachen, Germany, and founder of Smile Infinity Medical Centres across 12 countries.
It’s not a smile. It’s a signature.
A composite veneer which is also called Ferrari Smile may be directly placed by a dental technician in one session or fabricated in a dental laboratory and later bonded to the tooth.
Our first WaterLase MD Turbo Laser will provide our unique way of composite Veneers placement with NO Drilling, NO pain and minimal or NO removal of tooth Structure.
