What are Permanent Veneers?
Five-star quality dental veneers are very thin porcelain covers attached to the tooth with special cement. They are essentially bespoke, custom teeth that hide and replace existing teeth as they cover the whole front surface of the tooth.
Veneers can correct oral damage caused by trauma and are known to conceal many imperfections from discoloured, chipped, gapped, cracked and crooked teeth.
We have the full range of veneer treatments available, including porcelain, composite and ceramic. If you consider getting veneers, get in contact today and see how we can help you.
Our award-winning Dr David Bloom would be delighted to show you your options and help you choose the correct veneers for you.
They can also be used as part of a treatment plan incorporating other treatments like porcelain crowns and implants.
There are so many reasons our patients choose to get veneers. They are suitable for many different cases since they can change your tooth's colour, shape, size, and position.
Porcelain is the most recommended
We use porcelain wafer-thin ceramic shells, individually designed and hand-crafted to cover your teeth, giving you a healthy, natural look that enhances your smile.
We only produce bespoke dental aesthetics leaving you with the bright smile you want. More.
Replacement Veneers
Do your veneers need replacing? Perhaps they are chipped or you have decided to have additional ceramic shells fitted.
In these cases, the doctor will carefully colour match your replacements to appear like your existing teeth for a seamless finish. More.
Temporary Veneers
Temporary veneers or a 'trial smile' is an opportunity for you to see how your smile would ultimately look like.
It is a provisional 'smile' that is placed on 'your prepared teeth' before the final veneers are fitted. More.

- The type of material used - porcelain is more expensive but lasts longer.

Procedure, Process & Stages
Does it hurt getting dental veneers?
The procedure can be painless and many patients report little to no pain. The treatment often does not require much any anaesthesia.
However, usually, we are able to complete veneer treatments quickly using little amounts of a local anaesthetic to numb the mouth. This often makes the procedure painless as it helps you to feel more relaxed and comfortable.
It's normal to experience slight discomfort to gums and the jaw during recovery when eight or more veneers have been fitted, but this should often only lasts a few weeks.
Porcelain Veneer Uses
How do you know if you need veneers and when to get them?
Veneer treatments have many purposes.
Essentially, routine veneer treatments are able to fix issues like discolouration, which can happen as a result of root canal treatments, staining caused by fluoride overuse, or other contributing factors like resin fillings.
Other than treating discoloured teeth, veneers can be used to treat excessive tooth decay, worn down, gappy, overlapping, broken teeth and gummy smiles.
If you are experiencing any of the above, it's critical to visit us straight away.
Durable & Long-Lasting
How long do veneers last?
Depending on the material, veneers typically should last 15-20 years.
To ensure longevity, aftercare of your veneers is important - especially during your recovery at home.
Your veneers stand a good chance at lasting longer if you take the proper care following your treatment. This involves regular, monthly check-ups with a hygienist and at home cleaning techniques like flossing and brushing. This will help to prevent infections and veneer failure.
