Veneers can correct stains, discolourations, gapped or misshaped teeth by bonding to the surface of your natural teeth, covering up the imperfection.

How do I know if veneers are right for me?

The best way to know if veneers are right for you is to have your dentist assess your mouth and discuss the option with you.

How can veneers improve my smile?

• Repairing minor cracks or chips.
• Covering up discolourations.
• Covering over worn enamel.
• Reshaping crooked teeth.
• Filling any gaps between teeth.

How does the dentist attach the veneers?

Your dentist removes a small amount of enamel from tooth’s surface. This will allow the veneers to bond seamlessly and provides space to accommodate the veneers.

Then your dentist will take a 3D scan of your mouth using CEREC® technology so your custom-made porcelain veneers can be fabricated in the computerised milling machine and placed and cemented to your prepared teeth immediately.

This cutting-edge technology eliminates a second dental visit and the discomfort of wearing temporary veneers that have to be removed.

How do I care for my veneers?

Brush and floss your teeth as you normal because the tooth underneath the veneer can still succumb to decay. Limit exposure to teeth staining foods, avoid tobacco products and chewing on hard objects like ice cubes or chewing your fingernails.

Will I have to replace veneers?

Veneers are irreversible and can last about 10-15 years on average, but your oral hygiene and lifestyle habits can impact their longevity. If they chip or break, replace only the defective ones.
