Veneers

There’s a reason some celebrities choose veneers – they’re an easy way to quickly improve their smile. A veneer, in the dental context, is a thin, custom-made, crown-like shell, created from porcelain or composite resin that is fitted permanently over an existing tooth. Because veneers are a permanent solution, they’re custom-made for each patient.

A unique aesthetic.

Treatment starts with a thin outer layer of the existing tooth being removed. Then, the veneer is fitted precisely to the gum line and surrounding teeth before being bonded permanently. Since dental veneers only cover the surface of the teeth, they’re purely an aesthetic solution – great if you’re looking for that enviable-looking smile. However, they are not suitable for people with severe decay, compromised or missing teeth.

Veneers are ideal for people with teeth that are:

  • Stained
  • Discoloured
  • Uneven
  • Worn
  • Gapped
  • Out of proportion with the gums

 

Talk to the dental professionals at Dental Avenue, Parramatta about custom-made, expertly fitted veneers for your uniquely beautiful smile.

Veneers Faqs

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells bonded to the front of your teeth to change their shape, colour, size, or alignment. They’re often used for chips, gaps, discolouration, or worn edges. The two main types are porcelain and composite, and we’ll talk through which suits your goals at a consultation.

Porcelain veneers are made in a lab, tend to be more durable and stain-resistant, and usually take more than one visit. Composite veneers are built up directly on the tooth in a single appointment and are typically a lower-cost option, though they may not last as long. The right choice depends on your goals, budget, and the condition of your teeth.

With good care, porcelain veneers can last many years, while composite generally has a shorter lifespan. Longevity comes down to your oral hygiene and habits — avoiding biting hard objects and managing grinding, for example. We’ll go through how to care for them.

Some veneers involve removing a small amount of enamel so they sit naturally, while others are more minimal. Because enamel doesn’t grow back, that step is generally irreversible, which is why we assess your teeth carefully and explain what’s involved before proceeding — so you can make an informed decision.

It depends on the type. Where enamel has been reshaped to fit the veneer, the process isn’t reversible, so the tooth will usually always need some form of covering. Minimal- or no-prep options can be more conservative. We’ll explain exactly what your chosen treatment involves at your consultation.

That depends on your goals and how many teeth show when you smile — some people choose a single veneer, others a full set for an even look. We’ll assess your teeth and provide a written quote after your consultation so you know what’s involved before deciding.
