Veneers

Veneers are popular among patients of all ages, as they are the ideal way to dramatically improve the overall shape, colour and size of your own natural teeth. Made using an incredibly thin, yet durable, layer of porcelain, your veneer is bonded over your natural tooth in order to improve or protect the surface beneath it. As our veneers are crafted by technicians in Da Vinci Studios, California, Seapoint Clinic has quickly become the number one choice for cosmetic dentistry in Ireland. 

We know that many people may be unsure as to what to expect when it comes to veneers, which is why we arrange a smile simulation in our on-site Digital Smile Design studio. Here, we can edit the colour and size of your new smile before treatment starts! Once you are happy with your smile simulation, it is crafted into porcelain in California by Da Vinci Studios before eventually being bonded into place at Seapoint Clinic..it really is that simple.

Crowns

Over time, black lines can begin to show around some old crowns. This is caused by the corrosion of the metal and can lead to discolouration of the root of the tooth and even the gum. However, ceramic crowns are Seapoint Clinic are different. These are made entirely from porcelain and as it won't corrode over time, you won't have to worry about the appearance of black lines. Ceramic crowns use an ultra strong ceramic core, making them just as strong as metal. As the ceramic crowns match your tooth colour, they are far more natural looking than traditional crowns, making them practically indistinguishable from your own natural teeth.
