Veneers

Veneers are a versatile and convenient treatment to improve the appearance of visible teeth and transform your smile.

Depending on your individual requirements, veneers can be used to:

• Cover stains and discolouration.
• Close gaps between teeth.
• Repair minor chipping or cracks.
• Regularise uneven teeth.

The tooth’s surface enamel is first regularised and lightly etched in preparation to receive the veneers. This procedure normally does not require an anaesthetic.

Your dentist will then take impressions of your teeth, from which our specialist dental laboratory will create your bespoke veneers. The colour and brightness of the veneers are matched to your natural teeth.

When your veneers are ready, we will check their fit, shape and appearance on your teeth. The veneers are then bonded to the front of each tooth using special dental adhesive.

When hardened, your veneers can then be polished, leaving you to enjoy your beautiful new smile.

With care, dental veneers can be a long-lasting cosmetic treatment, up to 10 years or more. Your dentist will advise you on the best way to look after your veneers during your treatment.

However, just like natural teeth, dental veneers can sometimes chip or break.

Small damage can often be repaired, or if required the veneer can be replaced.
