Porcelain Veneers

What are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells of ceramic material that are designed to bond to the front surface of teeth. They are individually crafted to match the shape, colour, and appearance of surrounding teeth.

Porcelain is a durable material that is commonly used in cosmetic dentistry due to its strength and aesthetic properties.

Veneers are designed to mimic the natural appearance of teeth and may be suitable for improving the appearance of concerns such as discolouration, minor wear, or irregular tooth shape.

They are generally resistant to staining compared to natural teeth, although care is still required to maintain their appearance over time.

Treatment suitability

Porcelain veneers may be considered where there are concerns such as tooth discolouration, chips, minor spacing, or tooth shape irregularities.
They are designed to provide an aesthetic improvement while maintaining a natural appearance

Important information

Porcelain veneers are a cosmetic treatment option and outcomes vary between individuals depending on clinical factors such as oral health, bite and tooth structure.

A consultation is required to determine suitability and discuss appropriate treatment options.

Designing your smile: what to expect

When considering cosmetic veneer treatment, Dr Hanna takes the time to understand your concerns, preferences, and what you would like to improve about the appearance of your teeth.

A detailed assessment is carried out, including digital photography, smile analysis and discussion of suitable treatment options based on your individual needs.

A visual mock up and proposed smile design is used in all cases to help illustrate possible changes and support treatment planning before any work begins.

Once the planning stage is complete and options have been discussed, any recommended veneers are custom made as hand crafted porcelain veneers in collaboration with a dental laboratory. Each case is individually planned to suit your oral health, bite, and aesthetic considerations.

Treatment outcomes vary between individuals, and a consultation is required before any treatment can proceed.
