Veneers London are a minimally invasive method of transforming your smile in comparison to crowns, and by speaking to Dr Manrina Rhode, you can also show off your teeth as the celebrities do across our screens without extensive dental preparation or treatment.
What are veneers used for?
Porcelain veneers can treat a range of cosmetic dental issues. This includes repairing broken or chipped teeth which may not cause medical complications but can affect the appearance of your smile and knock your self-confidence. Veneers are commonly used to disguise irreversible staining of the teeth; this includes stubborn extrinsic staining of the enamel or intrinsic stains that affect the dentin. Veneers can be used to alter the shape of your teeth; misshapen teeth are common and again have a negative impact on the appearance of your smile. Veneers can also be used to close gaps between the teeth and create a neater alignment.
Advantages of veneers
Porcelain veneers are designed to resemble a similar shape and form to your natural teeth. Your teeth require minor preparation; however, this is a minimally invasive procedure and involves shaving a few millimetres of the enamel so that your veneers can fit securely onto the surface of each tooth. They are thin ceramic glass shells that are contoured so that they fit correctly and it is easy to clean between the teeth. This also stops the teeth from appearing bulky and prevents damage such as chips or breakage. You must maintain a good dental hygiene routine as you would with your natural teeth. This includes brushing twice a day, flossing after meals as well as visiting the dentist regularly and maintaining a healthy lifestyle and a good diet. This helps prevent dental health issues, and it also helps prolong the life of your veneers.
Are veneers suitable for you?
If you are affected by dental aesthetic issues, then veneers could be a great solution for you. However, if you suffer from underlying dental health issues, such as tooth decay or require fillings or other restorative dental treatment, then you should speak to our dentist about alternative treatment options for you. This is also the case for patients who suffer from gum disease and periodontal disease. Sometimes you may require other treatments prior to undergoing cosmetic dentistry with veneers, or it may be that veneers are not suitable for you.
