Porcelain Veneers at Dentélle by Warragul Dental Care
What Are Porcelain Dental Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are semi-translucent ceramic covers that address imperfections on your teeth. They’re meticulously shaped and bonded to your teeth by our experienced cosmetic dentists. The thin, strong shells are designed to mask cracks, gaps, discolouration and minor misalignments. The veneers have a translucency which mimics your natural teeth, and a glossy polished finish to imitate healthy enamel. The porcelain veneers are crafted to fit into your natural teeth.
What Can Porcelain Veneers Address?
Porcelain Veneers, and What They Can Help With
Minor tooth imperfections are something many people want to address. Porcelain veneers are one option worth considering.
Custom-crafted porcelain veneers can address several common aesthetic concerns:
- Slightly misaligned teeth
Small gaps or overlaps in your teeth can become more noticeable when you smile. Porcelain veneers are precision-crafted thin covers that can address slightly crooked teeth and gaps. Their narrow width means they can fit closely into small spaces. - Fractured enamel
We know accidents happen and cracked or damaged teeth from sports injuries or trauma can be upsetting. Porcelain veneers can help address fractures and reinforce the enamel’s strength and smooth surface. - Intrinsic tooth discoloration
Many people want to address tooth discolouration which can happen due to things like genetics, medication staining, or age-related yellowing. Porcelain veneers can overlay intrinsically discoloured areas to match the colour and light reflection of surrounding teeth for a more uniform appearance. - Worn tooth edges
Acidic diets and aggressive grinding can erode your enamel over decades. While it’s not usually painful, thinning does expose yellower dentin and can affect how your teeth look. Dental veneers can address the proportions of your teeth and the appearance of worn edges.
Porcelain veneers are a low-invasive treatment that can address a range of concerns. Not only do they look natural but they’re highly functional, letting you bite and chew comfortably. If you’re considering veneers, get in touch with our friendly team today.
The Process to Achieve Your Picture-Perfect Smile
Our detailed porcelain veneer process
Thanks to precise techniques and technology, fitting your custom porcelain veneers typically takes around 3-4 appointments spaced over a few weeks. Here’s what you can expect:
Comprehensive Smile Evaluation
Our cosmetic team will use digital photographs, x-rays, teeth scans and models to carry out an in-depth analysis of the size of your teeth, their alignments, your facial proportions and your treatment goals before designing bespoke veneers. We’ll also discuss treatment options, timeframes and financing. We’d better get the kettle on!
Preparing your tooth
We carefully and conservatively reshape your teeth to give a good surface area to bond the thin veneer shells. While ensuring enough enamel remains for bonding, we remove just enough to refine the fit and facial contours.
Next, we’ll perform a digital scan to get precise measurements to send to our expert ceramic artist to craft your custom-designed veneers. During this process, we’ll fit your temporary veneers so you can preview your veneers for shape and colour while protecting your teeth (this is the fun bit!).
Working with our expert ceramist
We’ll review your provisional veneers to check their overall shape and size and how they fit in with your smile and facial proportions. We’ll make adjustments until we’re satisfied with the shape, size and fit, then take a 3D scan and high-resolution photos so that our expert ceramist can replicate the final design in your veneers.
Crafting your custom veneers
Our dental technician uses 30+ years of cosmetic dentistry to meticulously sculpt natural-looking veneers using layered feldspathic porcelain to match your surrounding teeth’s light refraction properties. The result is designed to look natural and blend with your surrounding teeth.
Final fitting and bonding
We check the fit of your new semi-translucent veneers before carefully bonding them directly to your tooth with light-activated resin cement. You may need a quick follow-up for minor adjustments as you adapt to the veneer but the team will be in touch to let you know when and if to pop in.
If you follow good oral care and keep up with your hygiene maintenance visits every 6 months, your veneers are designed to stay looking great for over a decade.
