Dental Veneers

Striving to providing our patients with great smiles that will last

What are Veneers?

A dental veneer is a thin layer of porcelain or resin that is bonded to the front surface of the tooth. Veneers provide an excellent cosmetic option to improve the shape & appearance of your smile. 

What are veneers used for?

  • to cover stained or discoloured teeth 

  • to correct crooked teeth 

  • to fill in spaces between the teeth

Procedure for resin veneers

  • Resin veneers are thin covers built up in one appointment over the front surface of the teeth

  • A resin of desired shade is carefully selected 

  • The teeth may or may not require preparation for resin veneers. If required, approximately 0.3-0.5mm (thickness of a fingernail) of the front tooth surface is removed to allow space for the resin veneer layer.

  • The resin is then bonded directly to the tooth surface & shaped & polished to a desired beautiful restoration of the tooth’s front surface

It is important to note that the provision of porcelain veneers is an irreversible procedure.  Although porcelain veneers are considered long lasting restorations, they may require maintenance or replacing in the future.  Individual results can also vary with porcelain veneers dependent on the existing colour, shape and alignment of your teeth.  Your specific case will be discussed during your consultation.
