PorcelainVeneers

Porcelain VeneersOur veneers are wafer thin ceramic shells, individually designed to

cover your teeth, giving you a healthy, natural look that enhances

your smile. We only produce natural feeling aesthetics, whether for

correcting minor enhancements for a few teeth or for creating a full

smile makeover.Due to their long lasting natural tooth appearance

and minimal tooth preparation, porcelain veneers are often the

treatment of choice.

Veneers allow you to change the appearance, colour, shape, size,

position, rotations, texture, lustre and the form of teeth. They are

especially the treatment of choice when your teeth do not require

large

restorations or large amounts of dentistry and are used in smile

makeovers to enhance the way your teeth look. However, they can

also be used as part of a treatment plan that incorporates other

treatments like porcelain crowns, bridges and implants. This is very

common option in people who have different types of dentistry in

their smile but who wish to have a more uniform smile with teeth

that match each other.

COSMETIC DENTISTRY WITHOUT DRILLING IS NOW THE WAY

FORWARD

A type of Porcelain Veneers can now be created that involves none

or minimal tooth preparation to produce stunning new smiles called

Ultrathin Veneers. They can be used in a Smile Makeover, a Smile

Mini Makeover or for an individual tooth. These veneers are often

0.2 – 0.4mm thick yet they are strong, long lasting and aesthetic.

New innovations and cutting edge technology within cosmetic

dentistry has allowed for this conservative approach to award those

looking for a new smile makeover with minimal intrusion of the

tooth.

We can custom create your new smile for your front teeth in

combination with Smile2SuitU. A technique that allows us to create

teeth within a smile that absolutely look like they belong to only

you.

What areVeneers?VENEERS ARE A QUICK WAY TO A BEAUTIFUL SMILEVeneers are very thin layers of composite resin or porcelain which are fixed directly to the teeth to create a perfectly

shaped, natural smile with whiter and stronger teeth.

Each veneer is shaped and applied individually, resulting in a completely personalised new smile. In as few as two ap-

pointments you can have your veneers designed and fitted and ready to go. If you choose immediate veneers you can

even be ready in one appointment!

WHY CHOOSE DENTAL VENEERS?

Dental veneers can treat a whole variety of dental issues such as:

• Gaps between teeth

• Worn and chipped teeth

• Gummy Smiles

• Fluorosis (patches on teeth)

• Crooked teeth

• Discoloured teeth

NO-PREP, NO- PAIN VENEERSThe Perfect Smiles Studios offer the latest range of “no-prep” or minimal preparation veneers from top brands Ultrathin,

Durathin and Lumineers. They are incredibly thin and require very little tooth preparation and are bonded directly to

teeth.

Immediate veneers best for fast results can usually be fitted in a single visit and are the most affordable option.

Advantages ofPorcelain Veneers

The concept behind veneers is extremely simple: If a patient has discoloured or stained, uneven, or just unsightly or

unattractive teeth, we can cover them up with a customisable paper thin, attractive porcelain veneer quickly and

affordably with long lasting results. One of the reasons that veneers are so popular is due to their flexibility to cover up

a multitude of dental problems including gaps between teeth or chipped teeth.

They have a further advantage of not changing colour over time improving and maintaining the look of your smile with

a whiter teeth that looks both attractive and natural.

OTHER ADVANTAGES OF DENTAL VENEERS

• They protect your underlying tooth substance.

• They cosmetically enhance the look of your teeth.

• You can change the colour of your teeth.

• You can have a single veneer or more depending on your cosmetic needs.

• You can give crooked teeth the illusion of being straight.

• They are more conservative than porcelain crowns.

• They can produce an instant change in appearance.

The process The process of having porcelain veneers involves the following outline stages:

1. Examination and assessment to decipher which type of veneer will work best for you or whether an alternative

treatment would be better suited.

2. Depending on the type of veneer chosen and the objectives of your treatment the dentist will design the new

treatment plan for your new smile.

3. Records and diagnostics are then taken and sent to the laboratory. This step is not necessary for immediate

and prefabricated veneers.

4. The veneers are hand crafted using a vast range of colours, textures, translucencies and strengths in the

laboratory by a professional ceramist.

5. The dentist then uses special adhesives to bond the dental veneers to your teeth.

When creating veneers for teeth the dentist “prepares” the teeth before taking any records. The term “preparation”

signifies the amount of tooth cutting involved. Some types of treatments like Ultrathin veneers require no tooth cutting

compared to the traditional veneer work where sometimes some preparation may be necessary. Sometimes

“preparation” simply means roughening the surface to enable better bonding to occur with the adhesives. Depending

on your teeth your dentist will discuss which type of veneers will be best suitable for you and also what type of

preparation will be involved.

The newer cosmetic veneers include Ultrathin Veneers, Durathin Veneers and Lumineers which involve no drilling and

hence no injections since no tooth is being cut. These are extremely comfortable to have done and form long lasting

solutions for you.
