What are porcelain veneers?
Porcelain vene ers are ultra-thin shells that are bonded to teeth to enhance their shape, size and colour. As they are made of porcelain, a resistant and durable material, they perfectly imitate the natural enamel of the teeth, offering an impeccable aesthetic finish. They are ideal for correcting problems such as:
- Severe staining or discolouration that cannot be corrected with tooth whitening.
- Worn or chipped teeth.
- Slight misalignments or gaps between teeth (diastemas).
Why choose porcelain veneers?
Porcelain veneers are an excellent option for those seeking a long-lasting, advanced aesthetic solution. Some of their benefits include:
- Superior Durability: Porcelain veneers can last 10-15 years with proper care, making them a long-term investment for your smile.
- Stain Resistance: Porcelain is resistant to stains from coffee, tea, red wine and other foods, so you’ll maintain a bright smile for years to come.
- Natural Appearance: Porcelain’s translucency and lustre perfectly mimic tooth enamel, providing a natural-looking result that blends in with the rest of your teeth.
- Complete Aesthetic Correction: Porcelain veneers can improve the shape, size and colour of teeth, addressing imperfections such as uneven, chipped or misaligned teeth.
How does the placement process work?
The process of getting porcelain veneers is quick and easy. Here we explain each step:
First Consultation: During the initial consultation, we conduct a thorough assessment of your dental health and discuss your aesthetic goals. At this stage, we determine if porcelain veneers are right for you and take digital impressions of your teeth.
Tooth Preparation: On the second visit, we prepare your teeth by removing a small layer of enamel to ensure the veneers fit precisely. This step is minimal and is performed under local anaesthetic, if necessary, to ensure your comfort.
Impression Taking and Fabrication: We use the digital impressions to send the details to the dental laboratory, where the custom-made porcelain veneers will be fabricated. This process ensures that the veneers fit perfectly and give a natural-looking result.
Final Placement: Once the veneers are ready, we place them on your teeth with a special adhesive. We adjust the shape and colour to make sure they blend in perfectly with the rest of your smile.
Follow-up Reviews: We schedule reviews to make sure you are completely satisfied with the results and to make any necessary adjustments.
