What is a veneer?

Veneers are ultra-fine facings of porcelain handcrafted by our master dental technician to cover the front surfaces of teeth and disguise underlying cosmetic concerns.

Favoured for their natural appearance and impressive durability, our dental veneers are hugely versatile and can be used to tackle a wide range of dental concerns. Including closing gaps, aligning crooked teeth, reducing the prominence of teeth, and hiding staining.

That’s a lot of possibility from a little piece of porcelain, but it doesn’t stop there. Perhaps one of the most impressive uses is veneer treatment to rebuild worn teeth and cover over chips.

Porcelain dental veneers can be used to correct severely chipped, broken, or worn-down teeth quickly and easily.

Teeth can wear away along the biting edge with age or grinding over the years, affecting the symmetry of your smile and the balance of teeth within the gum line. But the good news is, by restoring the length of teeth, veneers can help get back the natural curve of your smile line.

Sitting over the front surface of teeth, veneers are also ideal for covering over any chips or cracks, leaving you with picture-perfect results.

It’s not just a case of balancing things out though. A further benefit of using veneers is the opportunity to recover the whiteness of your smile.

Unfortunately, it’s not usually possible to whiten teeth that are severely worn down – but they can be restored to their former glory with porcelain veneers.

With a wide selection of stunning white shades to choose from, you can be confident of finding a colour that elevates your smile whilst still looking completely natural.

Absolutely.

Veneers are an excellent way to tackle chipped tooth repair or to deal with the effects of worn teeth.

As long as the wear to the tooth isn’t too excessive, a veneer can successfully be attached to elongate the tooth and cover over any signs of damage.

It is important to keep in mind though, that if the damage or wear is too substantial, the tooth will have to be built back up before a veneer can be fitted or an alternative treatment considered. This is because the natural tooth will not offer enough support to the veneer, which may lead to breakages when pressure is applied, such as when eating.
