Dental veneers are a great cosmetic treatment, as they can make a subtle change, or implement a drastic transformation.

What are dental veneers?

Dental veneers are a thin porcelain shell for your teeth that provides a cosmetic benefit for teeth which have become discoloured, chipped or otherwise worn away. You can have veneers fitted which appear straighter than your original teeth and fill in unwanted gaps.

You can choose veneers to simply restore the look of an original tooth which has a minor, functionally insignificant chip or discolouration. Alternatively, you may wish to replace an entire row of teeth to rejuvenate or enhance your smile.

Why would I need a veneer?

Veneers are suitable as a way of restoring or augmenting the look of your teeth, where a functional change is not required.

Depending on your goals, you may consider veneers as part of smile makeover treatment or an individual procedure to present a smile which makes you feel more comfortable and self-confident.

One advantage of veneers is that they do not require extraction or a period wearing an orthodontic corrective device. You can apply them to as many or as few teeth as you want, potentially targeting only the most visible teeth for maximum impact on the look of your smile.

However, in instances where one or more of your teeth have been damaged or discoloured, veneers can restore the original look and enhance the brightness of your teeth.
