Porcelain veneers are essentially thin, custom-made covers crafted from high-quality porcelain material. These are bonded to the front surface of your teeth. The primary purpose of porcelain veneers is to improve the aesthetic aspects of your teeth, addressing issues such as discoloration, chips, gaps, or irregular shapes.
One of the key reasons behind their popularity is how well porcelain resembles natural tooth enamel. Porcelain mimics the translucency and shine of natural teeth, and it’s also highly resistant to staining.
Perhaps most importantly, veneers are not just about aesthetics; they also provide a protective layer to the tooth surface. Despite this, they don’t replace the need for good oral hygiene. The process of getting veneers usually involves a few visits to the dentist. These involve visits for your consultation, preparation of teeth, and the application of the veneers.
Porcelain veneers are made in the lab by highly skilled technicians, guided by the direction of our own experienced cosmetic dentists. This means every set is completely unique and made according to the smile aspirations of each patient.
As well as porcelain, veneers can also be made from other materials like composite resin. It may be more expensive, but porcelain is often preferred for its durability and very natural appearance.
If you’re looking to perfect your smile and want longevity, porcelain veneers may be the right option for you. They can help amend small gaps in the teeth, as well as altering shape and colour. In some cases, they can be used to address overlapping or uneven teeth, helping to create a more even, symmetrical, and photogenic smile.
This largely depends on the profile of your natural teeth. Sometimes it is possible to place veneers without any preparation to the natural teeth. Where this isn’t the case, we prefer to be as non-invasive as possible removing a minimal part of the natural tooth enamel in order to successfully place the veneers.
After an initial consultation with us here at Ringway Dental, the treatment is usually carried out over two to three separate appointments. This also includes a ‘trial smile’ where you get to test out your new teeth, before they are made in the lab.
We usually recommend the application of four to six porcelain veneers to get a great result, but they can be used to restore a singular tooth.
We recommend caring for your veneers just as we recommend caring for your natural teeth. This means brushing twice daily for two minutes, using interdental brushes or flossing, and twice yearly check-ups and hygienist appointments here at the practice.
