What Are Veneers?

Veneers can be described as very thin sheets made from porcelain, ceramic, or composite material, which are bonded to the front of your teeth to alter their appearance. Not only are they extremely natural-looking, but they also help to transform a number of common aesthetic concerns, such as the following:

  • Chipped or broken teeth
  • Crooked or twisted teeth
  • Discoloured teeth
  • Teeth which are uneven in size and shape
  • Teeth which are unevenly spaced or contain large gaps in between

The Veneer Process

Those wishing to obtain veneers can schedule a consultation at The Tooth Affair, where our highly-experienced dentist will thoroughly discuss the procedure with them, whilst answering any questions a patient may have along the way. Digital imaging (such as x-rays and intra and oral photographs) will also be obtained, as they allow our team to gain a more comprehensive overview of your oral health.

Our professional team are also able to provide you with a mock-up of your veneers, which allows temporary veneers to be placed on your teeth so you can witness how they will look and feel first-hand, before committing to your permanent veneers.

Once your custom veneers are created in our lab, we are able to bond them permanently to your teeth. This is a quick and relatively comfortable process which involves the removal of some of the tooth’s surface to ensure your new veneers sit flush with the rest of your smile.

We only use the safest and highest-quality materials in our veneers, including ceramic, porcelain, or composite for a smile that is durable, long-lasting, and natural-looking. Patients are always amazed at how quickly and easily their smile is transformed using this procedure.

Frequently Asked Question

What are dental veneers?

Veneers are very thin shells, typically made from porcelain, ceramic, or composite material, that are bonded to the front surface of the teeth to alter their appearance. They are commonly used to address appearance-related concerns such as chipped, discoloured, uneven, or gapped teeth. A consultation with Dr Ruchi Chandra (Dentist) is the best way to determine whether veneers may be suitable for your individual circumstances.

What is the difference between porcelain and composite veneers?

Porcelain and ceramic veneers are custom-made in a dental laboratory and are generally known for their strength and resistance to staining over time. Composite veneers are applied directly to the tooth in a single visit and typically require less removal of the natural tooth surface, though they may require more maintenance over time. Each material has its own considerations depending on the patient’s dental health, goals, and budget.

How long do veneers last?

With proper care, porcelain veneers can last for many years, while composite veneers may require maintenance or replacement sooner. Longevity varies depending on the individual, the material used, and how well the veneers are cared for. Regular dental checkups are important for monitoring their condition.

What care is required after getting veneers?

Veneers are cared for much like natural teeth. Brushing twice daily, flossing regularly, and attending routine dental checkups and cleans at The Tooth Affair may help maintain them over time. It is also advisable to avoid habits that place excessive force on the teeth, such as biting nails, chewing hard objects, or grinding. If teeth grinding is identified, a protective night guard may be recommended.

Who is suitable for veneers?

Veneers may be suitable for adults with good underlying oral health who are looking to address specific appearance concerns. They are generally not recommended for patients with untreated decay, gum disease, or significant teeth grinding until those conditions have been appropriately managed. A thorough examination and discussion with Dr Ruchi can help determine whether veneers are an appropriate option for you.
