Porcelain Veneers allow your cosmetic dentist to restore a healthy, white appearance to teeth that have become misaligned, cracked, chipped, or stained. They can also be used to cover gaps in teeth where orthodontic treatment may not be suitable.
These thin porcelain facings can dramatically improve the aesthetics of your smile by covering blemishes that cannot be resolved by other cosmetic dental techniques.
Veneers can be custom coloured to match the exact shade of your remaining teeth. Placement is very simple and painless, as is the tooth preparation. A special bonding agent holds the veneer firmly in place, allowing the tooth to have complete functionality.
An extremely popular and effective cosmetic dental technique, porcelain veneers can quickly revamp your stained, cracked smile into a beautiful, perfect smile.
Veneers are a long-term solution to imperfect teeth, once you’ve had them fitted, it’s an irreversible procedure. So, you need to think through your options carefully and make sure that you choose the right solution for your needs. Our team is here to help and guide you through your options.
The benefits of veneer treatment
Veneers provide a very natural looking finish. If you are concerned about chipped, misshapen or discoloured teeth, veneers can offer a long-lasting cosmetic solution.
The colour of the porcelain veneer can be selected to match existing teeth or to make them appear whiter.
The veneer provides a similar look to the light-reflecting qualities of natural teeth, helping patients achieve a brighter, natural -looking smile.
Porcelain veneers are more stain resistant and durable than composite bonding and if looked after properly, can last for many years.
Veneers provide a gentler approach to altering a tooth’s shape or colour than crowns, as only a small amount of enamel has to be removed from the tooth surface to fit the veneer.


What are the alternatives to veneers?
- Composite bonding – cosmetic bonding is a fast, non-invasive procedure which can usually be completed in a single appointment. A composite resin is applied to the tooth to restore its natural shape and colour.
- Crowns – a crown is a tooth-shaped cap that’s placed over the visible portion of the tooth. A porcelain crown will be virtually indistinguishable from other teeth.
- Orthodontics – fixed or removable braces can be used to straighten misaligned teeth and close gaps.
