Porcelain Veneers
Improving the appearance of your smile.
What are Porcelain Veneers?
Unlike composite bonding where material is placed and cured directly on your tooth, porcelain veneers are laboratory made. Using highly aesthetic ceramics technicians are able to replicate the depth of colour present on natural teeth.
Following an initial preparation appointment, where impressions are taken, the ceramic veneers are tried in and bonded securely to your own tooth.
Benefits of Veneers

- Durability: Made from high-quality materials, veneers resist stains and chipping. With good care, they can last for 10 to 15 years.
- Minimally Invasive: Veneers require less alteration of natural teeth than other procedures like crowns, thus preserving your original teeth’s health.
- Improved Confidence: Veneers can fix dental issues such as gaps and discoloration, enhancing your overall appearance and confidence.
