Our Veneer Treatment
Veneers For Confidence and a Great Smile
Veneers are custom-made thin layers of porcelain which are made to fit over the front surface of the tooth and are used to cover a discoloured tooth, improve the positioning of the tooth as well as change the shape and size of front teeth.
Veneers can be used to simply improve your smile, as well as to make a chipped tooth appear whole again, as well as to close up small gaps when braces are not appropriate. Veneers can make teeth appear very natural, as well as healthy.
Benefits and Aftercare
Veneers look natural, due to the fact that your dentist takes on your teeth to do them. This guarantees that the contours and colours of the shell look similar to your natural tooth enamel. They also solve certain issues, such as gaps in between teeth, misshapen teeth and stained teeth. They also provide a long lasting stain free solution. If looked after properly, veneers can last up to 10 years.
Ensure that you are brushing twice daily and flossing at least once in the evening. This will help avoid tooth decay and gum disease. Make sure that you go for regular checkups at the dentist so that they can keep your mouth clean and healthy and catch any problems in their early stage. The more things that are done to your teeth, the more checkups that are needed, as this increases the likelihood of anything else going wrong.
