Porcelain Veneers
Improve the colour, shape of your teeth.
A veneer is a porcelain facing on the front of your teeth usually your top teeth, it is just like a false finger nail.
Veneers are made out of porcelain and are used mainly for aesthetic reasons.
The Natural Look
Veneers make teeth look natural and healthy, and because they are very thin and are held in place by a special strong bond (rather like super-glue) very little preparation of the tooth is needed.
Different Veneer Shades
A precise shade of porcelain can be chosen to give the right colour to improve a single discoloured or stained tooth or to lighten front teeth (usually the upper ones) generally.
When braces wont work
Veneers can also be used to close small gaps, when orthodontics (braces) are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.
Benefits
Long-lasting solution – Dental veneers can last as long as 10 to 15 years, with proper maintenance.
Natural-looking results – Porcelain veneers are specially made to match your natural tooth colour.
Quick, simple procedure – Typically porcelain veneers can be completed in two visits.
Stain-resistant – Porcelain veneers are resistant to staining, unlike natural teeth. You can maintain brilliant pearly whites, while still enjoying coffee, tea, and other products that normally cause staining of the teeth.
Cosmetic – Porcelain veneers improve teeth that are cracked, chipped, broken, badly discoloured, widely spaced, or slightly misaligned.
Improve confidence – An improved smile can help you feel more confident about your appearance, ultimately giving you a better quality of life.
