What are veneers?

A veneer is a wafer thin shell bonded to the front surface of your existing tooth to transform the look of your smile. They can be made to match the natural colour of your teeth to blend in seamlessly, or used to improve discolouration and create a more even look.

Veneers are usually fitted to the front upper and lower teeth, but can be used on all your teeth to completely reinvent the appearance of your smile. Modern veneers are thin, strong and highly aesthetic.

What can veneers be used for?

Veneers can be used to treat a number of dental issues, including:

  • Tooth discoloration, especially for teeth beyond the help of whitening treatment
  • Chipped or cracked teeth
  • Uneven smiles
  • Gaps or spaces between teeth
  • Wonky or crooked smiles

What is involved in the treatment?

At your free treatment consultation, we examine your teeth and gums and ensure you are suitable for veneers. We discuss the aspect of your smile you would like to improve and take digital scans and images so your veneers can be created.

When you are happy with your proposed new smile, we continue the treatment process. This will be slightly different depending on the type of veneer you are having fitted.

If you are having porcelain veneers, we prepare your teeth by removing a layer of enamel, if needed. We fit temporary veneers to protect your teeth while your final ones are being made. Once they are ready, we make sure you are completely happy with your new smile and fix your veneers in place using strong dental adhesive.

If you are having composite veneers, the treatment is quick and simple, and your teeth don’t need any enamel removed beforehand. We apply composite in thin layers, building up the accurately planned shape to create a stunning final look. We then polish your veneers, making them look just like natural teeth.

Veneers, especially porcelain ones, are resilient, but still need to be treated with care. Try not to bite into anything very hard or use your teeth to open anything to give them the best chance of lasting damage-free for a long time.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are veneers reversible?

    Porcelain veneers are not reversible, as some of your natural tooth enamel is removed to accommodate them. This type of veneer will need to be replaced if they become chipped or damaged. Composite veneers, however, can be removed as no alterations are made to the existing tooth.

  • How do I look after my veneers?

    The best way to look after your veneers is to include them in an excellent home oral hygiene routine, including brushing and flossing twice a day. The tooth underneath the veneer needs to be kept healthy so it continues to be a strong foundation.

  • Can veneers become damaged?

    Veneers are strong and durable, but do have the potential to become damaged. They have the potential to chip through accidents, biting very hard foods or if you use your teeth to open items.

  • How will veneers make my teeth feel?

    You may feel some sensitivity for the first few days after your veneers have been fitted, but this is temporary and will fade. As you get used to them, your veneers will feel and function like your natural teeth.
