Dental veneers are the best way to completely rejuvenate your smile. But did you know, there are a couple of different types of veneer - Instant Veneers (otherwise known as composite veneers) and Porcelain Veneers. So how do you know what's right for you and what's the main difference between the two?

Instant Veneers

Instant Veneers give remarkable results without the need to damage your natural tooth beneath. Maintaining healthy, beautiful teeth is so much easier with this advanced non-invasive treatment option and your dream smile can be achieved in as little as 60 minutes! But how does it all work? Following your initial consultation - your dentist may recommend whitening to achieve a brighter smile. From here, they will then expertly layer the composite veneers around your teeth to your desired shape, shade and contour. You will leave the clinic straight away with a beautiful smile, not numb; ready to enjoy your new smile! It really is that straightforward!

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are a great way to dramatically and permanently improve the appearance, shape and colour of your teeth. They are usually used if you are looking to make significant changes to the colour, shape or position of your teeth. Made using a very thin layer of tooth-coloured porcelain bonded over your own natural tooth to improve its aesthetics or to protect its damaged surface. Because we only use veneers handcrafted by technicians in Da Vinci Studios, California, Seapoint Clinic is the premier choice in Ireland when it comes to getting a natural, beautiful smile.
