5 things you need to know about porcelain veneers

Whether you want to brighten up your smile or fill in the gaps in your teeth, porcelain veneers can have a truly transformative effect. If you’re thinking about taking the step towards a glowing smile, our professional treatment is the perfect way to get there. But what exactly are porcelain veneers? Here are 7 things we think you should know about our porcelain veneers treatment.

1. How long do porcelain veneers last?

One of the main advantages of porcelain veneer treatment is the long length of time they last for. Porcelain veneers can last for around 10 to 15 years, depending on how well they have been looked after. Our bespoke porcelain veneers are especially well-suited for your mouth and use the highest quality materials.


2. Do I need to look after my veneers?

Think of it this way - anything bad for your teeth will probably be bad for your veneers too. With regular care, it’s entirely possible that your veneers could end up lasting for more than 30 years. Keep up your brushing routine and don’t use your teeth to open bottles to keep both your teeth and veneers in tip-top shape.


3. Do porcelain veneers feel natural?

Veneers are essentially thin laminates of porcelain - sort of like false nails for your teeth. Due to their thinness, our veneers feel authentically natural and will fit into your mouth like a glove. This bespoke element allows us to combine both a natural look and a natural feel.


4. How long does porcelain veneers treatment take?

Our porcelain veneer treatment is super simple and isn’t a lengthy process. First things first, we will get you in for a consultation and discuss what you would like to achieve with your veneers. After looking for cavities and taking some photos, we will prepare your teeth by removing a small piece of enamel so a temporary veneer can sit comfortably on your tooth. On your next visit, your new veneers are cemented into place. 


5. Can I have veneers if my teeth are crooked?

Yes - you can have veneers even if your teeth are crooked or wonky. However, extra orthodontic treatment may be required in order to place them. While porcelain veneers will provide you with a transformed smile, there may be different treatments that would better suit your mouth.
