Porcelain Veneers

Do you want a whiter, straighter smile without the look of braces? Porcelain veneers might be the answer for you!

Porcelain veneers are used to straighten, whiten, and reduce gaps between teeth. The procedure involves having each tooth concealed in a thin coat of porcelain that is the same colour as normal teeth. This maybe the perfect option for individuals who are self-conscious about the appearance of braces.

What is the process involved with porcelain veneers?

  At your first consultation:

  • Our professional dentist, Dr. Azmi, will prepare each tooth by removing approximately 1/2mm of enamel. We want you to be as comfortable as possible, which is why you will be given a local aesthetic during this process.
  • An impression of your teeth will be taken and sent to the dental specialists' lab and custom fit veneers will be made for you. The veneers will take two weeks to complete, so you will be fitted with temporary veneers until then.

Your second consultation:

  • Once your custom fit veneers are ready, our dentist, Dr. Azmi, will place these over your teeth.
  • When your veneers have been fitted, your teeth will be cleaned and polished, allowing your veneers to position and cement onto your teeth.
  • We will provide you with essential care instructions.
