PORCELAIN VENEERS

Dear Sanaz, Thank you for my Hollywood smile!

If your front teeth are stained, chipped, or malaligned, veneers will give you a good life-like appearance with minimum tooth adjustment.

​

A veneer is a porcelain facing on the front of your teeth usually your top teeth, it is just like a false finger nail.

Veneers are made out of porcelain and are used mainly for aesthetic reasons.

​

Veneers make teeth look natural and healthy, and because they are very thin and are held in place by a special strong bond (rather like super-glue) very little preparation of the tooth is needed.

​

Porcelain veneers can improve the colour, shape and position of teeth.

​

A precise shade of porcelain can be chosen to give the right colour to improve a single discoloured or stained tooth or to lighten front teeth (usually the upper ones) generally.

Veneers can also be used to close small gaps, when orthodontics (braces) are not suitable.

​

If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.
