Dental Veneers Explained

Dental Veneers Explained

Dental veneers are among our most popular forms of treatment, as more and more people opt for cosmetic dentistry treatment that can help improve your smile, while maintaining a healthy, natural look. There are many reasons as to why cosmetic dentistry has become so popular, especially dental veneers, as they can instantly correct a wide range of issues such as chipped, discoloured, misaligned or crooked teeth. Here at Seapoint Clinic, we offer Da Vinci veneers, the premier choice of dental veneers. These veneers are carefully handcrafted by skilled technicians in Da Vinci Studios, California, these veneers are made of a very fine, tooth-coloured porcelain which is then bonded over your natural tooth to improve and protect the damaged surface of your own tooth.

Dental veneers are designed to help stand up to everyday forces and use. However, over time they may become worn. On average, and with proper care, dental veneers can last anywhere from 10-20 years.

What's Involved in Treatment?

Before you begin treatment, we arrange a smile simulation in our in-house Digital Smile Design Studio, where you will see what your new smile will look like. This allows us to modify the shape, size and colour of your veneers before treatment even begins! We then convert your custom smile simulation into porcelain in California before we bond it into place. It really is just that simple!

Will My Teeth Be Sensitive After Treatment?

Most people don't experience any sensitivity following treatment, but this can vary from person to person. Any sensitivity is typically temporary and should disappear within a few short days after treatment. Talk to your dentist about your individual circumstances.

How Do I Maintain My Veneers?

Just like your own natural teeth, your veneers need regular care and maintenance in order to look their very best. By following a dental hygiene routine of regular brushing, flossing as well as dental check-ups with your hygienist and dentist, you can ensure your teeth remain sparkling.

I've Been Told About Crowns and Veneers, But What's The Difference?

Veneers cover the front portion of your teeth and are typically used to restore or improve the overall look of your front teeth. Meanwhile, crowns are tooth-shaped caps which are placed over an entire tooth to change its shape and help restore structure after it has been damaged.
