These thin porcelain shells can enhance your smile's natural beauty, concealing chips, cracks and discolouration.

Veneers

A confident, radiant smile can transform the way you feel about yourself and the impression you make on others. Many patients come to Dentique Studios wishing to correct imperfections such as worn, chipped or uneven teeth.

Porcelain veneers are a highly effective and minimally invasive way to enhance your smile, providing a natural, long-lasting result that complements your facial features.

What Are Porcelain Veneers?

Veneers are thin, customised porcelain shells bonded to the front sides of your teeth.

Veneers are a conservative cosmetic option because they preserve most of the natural tooth structure while delivering a dramatic aesthetic improvement. Each veneer is carefully crafted to match the shape, colour and translucency of your surrounding teeth for a seamless appearance.

They can improve the appearance of teeth that are:

Discoloured or stained
Worn down from age or bruxism
Chipped or fractured
Uneven or misaligned
Gapped or spaced

Why Are Porcelain Veneers So Popular?

Porcelain veneers provide a range of benefits for patients seeking cosmetic improvements:

Long-Lasting Results

With proper care, veneers can last many years, maintaining a bright and attractive smile.

Natural Appearance

Custom shading, translucency and shape ensure veneers blend seamlessly with your other teeth.

Minimally Invasive

Most veneer treatments preserve the majority of the natural tooth, keeping your smile healthy and strong.

Versatile Solution

Veneers can correct a variety of concerns, including gaps, worn teeth, discolouration or misalignment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can porcelain veneers get chipped or fall off?

Porcelain veneers are known for their strength, durability and ability to transform a smile, but like any dental restoration, they are not completely immune to damage.

If you are considering veneers or already have them, it is natural to want to understand how to protect your investment. With the right care, veneers can last many years, but certain habits or accidents can affect their longevity.

Understanding Veneer Durability

Porcelain is a strong and stain-resistant material, but it can still chip, crack or become dislodged if exposed to excessive force. Common causes include:

Biting or chewing hard foods such as ice or nuts
Using teeth as tools to open packaging
Teeth grinding or clenching (bruxism)
Trauma to the mouth from sports or accidents

If a veneer does chip or fall off, your dentist can often repair or replace it. Wearing a protective mouthguard while playing sports and addressing teeth grinding can help extend the lifespan of your veneers.

The Porcelain Veneers Process

The porcelain veneers process at Dentique Studios is carefully tailored to each patient to ensure optimal results. The typical steps include:

Initial Consultation: We assess your teeth, discuss your smile goals and evaluate whether veneers are the best option for you.
Smile Design: Using digital imaging, we plan the shape, size and colour of your veneers to complement your facial features.
Tooth Preparation: To make room for the width of the veneers, we remove a small amount of tooth enamel.
Impressions: We’ll take impressions and send them to a skilled dental laboratory where your custom veneers are fabricated.
Temporary Veneers: While we wait for the lab to create your veneers, we’ll place temporary veneers to maintain appearance and function.
Veneer Placement: The custom porcelain veneers are bonded to your teeth using a strong dental adhesive, and adjustments are made for a perfect fit.
Final Check and Polish: Once bonded, we ensure your bite is comfortable and the veneers look natural, polished and seamless with your surrounding teeth.
