Porcelain Veneers

Dental veneers are an excellent cosmetic remedy for a variety of dental conditions that affect the appearance of the front teeth. Durable and colour stable, veneers are, in many cases, the perfect way to restore the natural function and beauty of your teeth, so you can smile with confidence.

Veneers are a thin, semi-translucent shell, custom made to fit precisely over an existing tooth. They are permanently bonded to the tooth by a special resin that bonds the back of the veneer to the front of the tooth.

This patient had a fall which resulted in root treatment of the right incisor & a composite build up of the left incisor. Both upper incisors were restored with porcelain veneers.                      

The finished result is extremely strong and durable. Veneers are often a good cosmetic solution for a variety of dental conditions affecting the front teeth including:

• Restoring broken or chipped teeth.
• Whitening permanently stained or discoloured teeth.
• Correcting crooked or poorly shaped teeth.
• Closing diastemas (spaces between the teeth).

There are many benefits and advantages to having porcelain veneers applied to your front teeth.

• Only a small amount of natural tooth structure is removed during the procedure.
• A healthy, natural look is achieved with little or no discomfort.
• Veneers are often less expensive than alternative procedures.
• Veneers are strong, durable and colour stable.
