Cosmetic Dentistry » Porcelain Veneers
Are your teeth stained, chipped, or not aligned? Getting the perfect smile depends on many factors such as the shape, colour and position of teeth, as well as the gum line, and lip shape. Speak to the dentist who can carry out a comprehensive assessment and advise you of the best way to get a natural result. This may involve options of tooth alignment through Invisalign, professional tooth whitening or porcelain veneers.
For example Veneers are a good treatment option to consider because they look like natural teeth and don't require a major procedure.
A veneer is a very thin, tooth-coloured piece of porcelain (like a false finger nail) that is bonded on top of your own tooth. Based on your needs, we can adjust the shape of your veneers to make your teeth overall look longer and or closer together. You can have just one veneer or a whole set, known as a smile makeover.
For a single stained tooth we can also match the precise shade of porcelain to give it a lighter appearance and fit in with the surrounding teeth. Veneers can also be used to close small gaps, when braces are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.
