Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are the ultimate form of cosmetic dentistry, providing patients here at Nottingham Smiles with a stunning and professional looking smile.
A veneer acts like a kind of shell cover for the teeth and are likened to false fingernails; porcelain veneers are stronger than the composite resin type.
Before the treatment a small percentage of the tooth is filed down to allow correct placement of the veneer and to make sure they are aligned perfectly with the rest of your teeth.
Porcelain veneers are often used if teeth are:
- Chipped
- Crooked
- Stained
- Or if the patient has tooth gaps
The porcelain material used is very strong, and is known to last longer than the average veneer if properly taken care of. The colour of porcelain is amore likened to the natural colour of your teeth and there will be a selection to choose from. A veneer can rejuvenate the look and shape of your smile, without the need for other more invasive treatment.
When it comes to the porcelain veneer procedure it is a very simple one, usually aided by the use of mild anaesthetic to make sure there is no pain felt during the treatment.
The price of porcelain veneers is greater than that of lesser veneer materials but promises better looking and longer-lasting results. The price will depend on the extent of treatment required as per your individual case, and this can be discussed with one of our resident dentists here at Nottingham Smiles.
Veneers are well known for giving people that celebrity smile. They can offer you the Hollywood smile if you so wish or you can opt for more of a subtle look.
