Porcelain Dental Veneers

Dental veneers are much like a thin shell that fits onto the front of a tooth. It is used to quickly straighten a misaligned tooth or to improve the colour or shape of a tooth to fit in with the rest of your teeth. It is a popular dental solution to upgrade a smile because it is a cost-effective and efficient way to improve the look of certain teeth.

Dental veneers may be created with resin or porcelain. Resin veneers are cost-effective, but porcelain veneers look and feel more like natural teeth. They are also durable, often lasting 10 years or longer.

Are They for Everyone?

Porcelain veneers are a great solution for many of our patients. They can help repair teeth both quickly and efficiently so you can smile with ease. The following are the ideal situations that veneers are used for:

Repair front teeth that are cracked or chipped.
Improve colour for teeth that are stained.
Improve look of rotated teeth.
Quickly align one or a few teeth that are out of place when you smile.
Fill in gaps between teeth without the need for orthodontics.

Of course, there are some situations when dental veneers are not ideal. For example, if you have a gum infection, we will first treat the infection before considering veneers. If you have many teeth that are crooked, then clear aligners or braces might be a better solution. Each patient is unique and we will do a full evaluation and work with you to find the best solution for your needs.

X-rays, scans and any other data will be taken and used to create your custom veneer.

Your tooth will be prepared for the veneer.

The veneer will be bonded to your tooth.

Final changes will be done such as polishing the veneer to match the sheen of your other teeth.

While each patient is unique, the entire process may take from 2-4 weeks. We will work with you through the process so you are sure to love the results.

Risks and Recovery

Porcelain veneers are a common restorative option, but as with any procedure, there are risks and recovery considerations.

Possible risks include:

Temporary tooth sensitivity, especially to hot or cold
Minor gum irritation following placement
Veneer fracture or chipping if exposed to excessive biting forces
Veneers may need adjustment or replacement over time

Recovery considerations:

Many patients resume normal activities immediately after treatment
Mild sensitivity may last for a few days and usually settles quickly
Good oral hygiene and avoiding habits like nail biting or teeth grinding can extend the lifespan of veneers

Caring for Your New Dental Veneers

Even though porcelain veneers are considered a permanent solution to repair or restore teeth, care and maintenance are still required to ensure they and your natural teeth stay as healthy as possible for as long as possible. Dental veneers are known to last 10-15 years and even longer with the right care. The following are some things you can do to protect your investment:

Brush twice each day.
Change your toothbrush every three months.
Floss every day or as often as your dentist recommends.
Avoid opening bottles with your teeth.
Avoid biting hard objects such as pens.
If you play sports, ask your dentist about a mouthguard to protect your teeth.
If you grind your teeth, ask your dentist about a mouthguard for protection while you sleep.
Maintain regular dental checkups and cleanings so we can ensure plaque doesn’t build up around the veneers.
If your veneer feels loose or “off,” call right away so we can check it out.

Caring for your porcelain veneers is the ideal way to protect them and your teeth, so you can enjoy your smile for years to come.
