Dreaming of a stunning smile? Porcelain veneers, particularly Emax or Zirconium, can help you achieve it. A confident, beautiful smile makes a significant impact in both social and professional settings.
Cosmetic Dentistry with veneers has advanced so much in recent years that almost anyone can achieve a stunning smile.
Our dentists are highly skilled in the latest cosmetic techniques and take pride in helping you achieve your ideal smile. Explore the possibilities with porcelain veneers—you’ll love the way you look!
A porcelain veneer is a thin, custom-made shell that is bonded to the front surface of a tooth to enhance its appearance. Once attached, it is extremely strong and durable. Veneers are typically around 1.5 mm thick, made from translucent porcelain in a dental laboratory after taking a precise impression of your tooth.
Minimal removal of natural tooth structure is required.
They can enhance the colour, shape, and alignment of your teeth.
Veneers are a great solution for closing small gaps when braces aren’t an option.
They allow you to brighten your teeth, close spaces, and achieve a stunning smile.
Their light-transmitting properties give a natural, translucent, and highly aesthetic appearance.
Veneers usually require two appointments, and a local anaesthetic can be used to ensure your comfort.
During the first visit, the dentist may perform minor contouring of your natural teeth and take an impression. This is sent to the dental laboratory along with details such as your tooth shade, ensuring the veneers look completely natural.
At the second appointment, the veneers are tried in, and if you and the dentist are satisfied, they are permanently bonded to your teeth. For the best results, veneers are often combined with professional teeth whitening.
Bonding: A tooth-coloured filling material suitable for minor repairs on front teeth.
Dental Crowns: Used to strengthen teeth that are broken, weakened by large fillings, or have undergone root canal treatment.
Minor adjustments can be made, but it’s recommended to wait 2–3 weeks to get used to them before any changes. Some sensitivity may occur for a few days after placement.
Veneers can last many years, though they can chip or break just like natural teeth. Your dentist can advise on the expected lifespan and repair small chips if needed.
Cleaning and Care
Brush, floss, and rinse just like your natural teeth.
Whitening toothpaste can help prevent plaque and stains on the veneers, though it won’t change their colour.
Pay special attention to flossing along the edges where the veneer meets your tooth, as food and plaque can accumulate there. Your dentist will demonstrate the proper technique.
Maintaining healthy gums is crucial. Even minor gum recession can expose the edges of veneers.
Emax Veneers are available at very reasonable prices, offering a durable and natural-looking solution for a beautiful smile.
