Initial Consultation
This is a non-invasive visit with your dentist where you can discuss your issues, concerns and treatment options.
The dentist will decide on the best clinical, functional and aesthetic result to suit you. During the initial consultation, we will examine your teeth to make sure that they are suited to dental veneers.
You will receive a treatment plan which outlines the cost of your procedure.
An x-ray and smile design may be sometimes necessary at the consultation stage. A smile design will show you how your new smile is likely to look.
During the consultation process, we often get questions about clip in veneers and whether not we recommend them.
The short answer to this question is no - we do recomment them. However, we've dedicated a whole post to this topic entitled: The Truth About Clip In Veneers.
Procedure
Porcelain veneers are a great way to dramatically and permanently improve the appearance, shape and colour of your teeth.
They are usually used if you are looking to make significant changes to the colour, shape or position of your teeth.
Veneers are made up of a very thin layer of tooth-coloured porcelain bonded over your own natural tooth to improve its aesthetics or to protect its damaged surface.
You’ll normally have to visit us three times:
- For your initial consultation and OPG X-ray
- For your impression and for the preparation of your teeth which is usually carried out under local anesthetic to make sure it is completely comfortable
- Finally, to fit the veneer
The veneer is made in our dental laboratory by a dental technician. The process takes between three and four weeks.
Aftercare
You can significantly prolong the life of your veneer by adopting a good dental hygiene routine, including regular brushing and flossing. You don't need to brush the veneer any differently than your normal teeth.
Remember that dental decay can still occur to the base tooth (under the veneer), so don't be tempted to relax your care regime.
Be particularly alert to the presence of plaque, as this can signal the onset of serious problems for your veneer.
Veneers are made from a very strong durable material, you can continue to enjoy your favourite food without worry, although you should refrain from biting into anything that is very hard.
Regular Checkups
We recommend you maintain your teeth and veneers by having regular check ups to the dentist and hygienist visits twice a year.
