Porcelain Veneers

A Perfect Smile With Porcelain Veneers

If your teeth are suffering from any number of negative characteristics, such as cracks, chips, uneven shape, breakage or discolouring, then porcelain veneers can be an ideal solution to your problems. As part of a Smile Makeover, Porcelain Veneers can immediately create a permanent, perfect smile.

Made from a thin layer of ceramic porcelain material, veneers are thin, tooth-colored facings that are used to cover the front surface of the teeth and can improve the overall look of your teeth. In addition to being esthetically pleasing, dental veneers can also serve a functional purpose by protecting the surface of a damaged tooth. They offer an ideal option if the teeth require some preparation or recontouring to improve any misalignment.

Porcelain veneers are custom made according to the shape of the your individual teeth and, due to their ceramic composition, they have a quality that effectively mimics the natural state of real teeth. With a beautiful colour and translucency, your porcelain veneers can provide the perfect solution to your dental dissatisfaction and equip you with the smile of your dreams!

At Dental & Health on Clarendon, we offer the latest technology and work with some of the best dental technicians to ensure that the best possible results are achieved and that your new veneers match the colour and shape of your existing, surrounding teeth, for a natural looking smile.

Once complete comfort has been established, your teeth will be prepared by reshaping it to its necessary state for application of the veneer.Usually only 0.5-1mm of enamel is removed to create space for the new veneer. Once reshaping has been completed, an impression is then taken of your teeth, which will be sent to the specialist technician for creation of your veneers.

In the interim period before your new veneers are set in place, you will be equipped with temporary veneers .

Once your veneers are ready, your second visit will involve the placement of the veneers and any necessary adjustments needed to ensure the best results are obtained. Your veneers are then bonded to your teeth by using a durable resin which allows them the strength and security that they need to be fully functional and aesthetically pleasing.

We often recommend a bite/night splint be made following the insertion of porcelain veneers which may be damaged by habitual or heavy night grinding or bruxing.

To provide you with the best veneers possible giving you the best results, we ensure each end result is as natural as possible. Our state-of-the-art equipment and expertise ensures you receive the best possible smile.
