Veneers
What are veneers?
Dental veneers are created custom to your smile and are designed to cover the visible face of your teeth. Veneers consist of a thin layer of porcelain or composite resin that acts as a shell over your teeth; custom made for a perfect match.
Only requiring a minimal amount of tooth reduction, veneers offer a more conservative restoration option compared to a dental crown. It is essential that the underlying tooth is strong, healthy and not heavily filled. The process involves the removal of a small amount of your tooth’s enamel which will be replaced by your new veneer. Veneers can correct a single tooth, through to an entire arch of damaged or unsightly teeth.
Correct your smile’s appearance and health
Veneers can transform the colour, texture, shape and even alignment of your smile.
Porcelain vs composite
Veneers can help to correct:
- Chips or cracks
- Discolouration
- Misshaped teeth
While they can correct these issues, veneers can also:
- Enhance the appearance of your smile
- Redesign the shape and length of teeth
- Whiten and brighten your smile
