Our teeth come in all shapes and sizes, allowing them to perform specialised functions and work together so that we can bite, chew, eat and talk comfortably and effectively. By being different shapes and sizes, our teeth also make up beautiful smiles. If each tooth had been the same shape and size, then our mouth would have looked very strange. Unfortunately, if the right tooth is not the right shape and size, this can affect the appearance of your mouth as well. If you are unhappy with the shape and size of your teeth and the appearance of your smile, then you need to speak to us at DRMR and let us put together a tailored smile makeover for you. It may be that you have one awkward tooth or that all of your teeth are crooked, misaligned, oddly shaped or uneven, affecting the appearance of your smile. We will be able to use cosmetic dental treatment to create a beautiful smile for you.
Veneers London are a great way of changing the shape, size, position and shade of your teeth to create a beautiful, neatly aligned smile that fits your mouth and enhances your appearance.
What are veneers?
Veneers London are ultra-thin porcelain shells that can be fitted onto the front surface of your teeth to disguise all the imperfections underneath. These imperfections include irregular shapes and sizes, stains on the teeth that cannot be removed by teeth whitening, intrinsic stains and any chips and cracks on the teeth. Veneers London can be designed to a certain shape, size and shade to transform your smile completely, or they can be made to match the shape, size and shade of the rest of your teeth if you are simply looking to correct one tooth in particular.
How do veneers work?
To begin with, we will make sure that your teeth are healthy. If you have tooth decay or gum disease, then these issues will need to be addressed. We will clean your teeth, eliminating any plaque and tartar and then remove a thin layer of enamel to make sure that the veneers can fit snugly onto your teeth without appearing bigger or bulky.
Once your teeth are prepared, we will take an impression of your mouth that can be sent to the ceramicist to create a beautiful set of veneers. During this time, you can have a set of temporary veneers to protect your teeth. You should receive your veneers within a few weeks, and we will invite you to our clinic to have them fitted. Once in place, your veneers can last between 10 and 20 years. You have to look after your veneers as you would your natural teeth because your natural teeth are still prone to tooth decay, and you can still develop gum disease. The big advantage is that veneers are strong, durable and stain resistant, which means you can maintain your beautiful new smile for a long time. Speak to us at DRMR today to learn more.
