About Porcelain Veneers

We custom design our veneers so they fit everything from our patient’s facial structure, to their lip movement, and their natural teeth. We also assess varying shades of white to help the veneers look as natural as possible when we bond them to your teeth – with the amount of effort we put into ensuring they are perfectly suited to your face, no one will ever know they’re there!

Veneers are typically used as a non invasive approach to improve certain esthetic elements of the smile. They can mask teeth that are yellowed, chipped, stained, or crooked, acting as a non surgical route to your dream smile!

Getting Porcelain Veneers

The process of bonding the veneers is quite simple, and minimally invasive. The tooth, or teeth in question will be prepared for the veneer by having a minimal amount of the tooth’s structure removed. This is simply to ensure a smooth application, and is virtually painless. After the tooth, or teeth, have been properly prepared, the veneers will either be hand crafted by a professional ceramist with the instructions we’ve given them, or will be created using advanced CAD/CAM technology. No matter who or what crafts your veneers, they will always be professionally done.

The last step of the process is to ensure the color and shape is ideal for our patient’s facial structure! We will ensure this before officially bonding the veneers to your teeth, where they will remain for the next 10-25 years. Veneers can last a very long time if they are well taken care of, and we will make sure you’re properly equipped and knowledgeable enough to make them last for a very long time!

FAQ

How long do porcelain veneers last?

Porcelain veneers usually last 10–15 years with good oral care. Brushing, flossing, and regular dental checkups help keep them strong and looking natural for many years.

Are porcelain veneers permanent?

Veneers are not permanent, but the dentist must remove a thin layer of enamel to place them. Because of this, you will always need veneers afterward.

How natural do porcelain veneers look?

Porcelain veneers look very natural because they match your tooth colour and shape. They reflect light like real enamel, giving you a bright, healthy-looking smile.

What should I avoid after getting veneers?

After getting veneers, avoid biting hard foods, chewing ice, and using your teeth as tools. This helps prevent cracks and keeps your veneers strong.

Will veneers affect my bite?

When placed correctly, veneers should not change your bite. Our dentist checks your bite carefully to make sure your teeth fit together comfortably and safely.

How do I know if veneers are right for me?

Veneers may be right for you if you have chipped, stained, or uneven teeth. A dental exam helps our dentist decide the optimal treatment for your smile.
