What is a
Dental Veneer?

Porcelain veneers are custom-fitted “shells” that are bonded to the front surfaces of the teeth that are visible when you smile. They are used to cosmetically correct teeth that are crooked or misshapen or to cover up gaps, stains, and chips in your enamel.

These unique restorations provide a natural-looking alternative that enhances your entire smile without altering the complete surface of your teeth. Porcelain veneers are strong, stain-resistant and with proper care, can last for several years.

What can Dental Veneers be used to correct?

  • Patients who want to change the look of their smile (shape, shade, and colour)
  • Crooked teeth
  • Misshapen teeth
  • Discoloured teeth from intrinsic stains
  • Teeth sizes that do not match the patient’s face
  • Close spaces or gaps between teeth
  • Worn down or chipped teeth

How are Veneers Applied?

In order to create a custom, natural fit, the doctor starts by meeting with you to determine the “look” you’d like to achieve while checking the appropriateness of your teeth for veneers and obtaining the best colour matches.

Next, the doctor lightly sands the enamel on the teeth to be fitted with veneers to maintain the same tooth thickness. Then, an impression of your teeth is taken so the veneers can be shaped for a perfect fit, with the correct colour and shape. While your new “teeth” are being made, we may place temporary veneers on your teeth until the permanent ones are ready.

At the next visit, we will have you approve the colour and shape of your new veneers prior to cementing them. Your teeth will be cleaned with a mild acidic solution and then a tooth-coloured bonding adhesive is applied along with the veneers to cement them into place. Then the veneers are buffed to blend in with your other teeth.

And Voila! A new smile! A happy face!

Benefits of
Porcelain Veneers?

As a conservative dental approach to cover teeth imperfections and fill in the gaps, porcelain veneers are an ideal choice because:

  • Very little of the actual tooth enamel is removed
  • They provide a natural-looking alternative that is less expensive than crowns
  • They are strong and stain-resistant
  • With proper care, they can last 10-15 years
  • The procedure produces very little pain or discomfort

Porcelain veneers are not only aesthetically pleasing, they’re functional because they protect your damaged teeth. They may also save you time and money and eliminate the need for more invasive crowns if the doctor feels they are a good “fit” for your teeth!
