Veneers in Halifax

Have you dreamed of having a perfect smile? Are your front teeth a source of worry that impacts your ability to smile? If so, ask your dentist about dental veneers. Veneers are fitted to the front of your existing teeth to create a smile you can feel confident about.

What Are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are tooth-coloured shells that are colour-matched to the surrounding teeth to ensure they blend in perfectly in the mouth. They can be made from a variety of materials, including composite resin or porcelain and ceramic, which must be manufactured in a dental lab.

What Is the Process To Fit a Dental Veneer?

To fit a dental veneer, your dentist must begin by grinding the front surface of the tooth. This provides the space to properly fit the veneer. If you are being fitted with porcelain or ceramic veneers, they will take impressions of the teeth and send them to the dental lab to create. During this time, your dentist will fit temporary veneers until your permanent veneers are ready.

Can I Benefit from Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are perfect for patients who have imperfections in the front teeth. Common problems that can be improved with veneers include tooth discolouration, large spaces between the teeth, and misshapen teeth.
