Porcelain veneers
Veneers cover the front surface of a tooth and may be considered when a durable change in shape, colour or proportion is appropriate. They are irreversible where tooth preparation is required, so alternatives are discussed first.
Consultation and suitability
A plan begins with the right questions.
Records, photographs and a bite assessment help us evaluate tooth position, enamel and gum health. A trial design may be used to explore proportions before treatment.
No treatment is recommended until benefits, limitations, alternatives and likely maintenance have been discussed in relation to your own oral health.

Aftercare and considerations
Designed to be maintained.
Veneers require excellent cleaning and routine review. They can chip or debond, and protective night-time wear may be advised when grinding is present.
Questions patients often ask
How will I know whether this is suitable?
Your dentist will explain findings after examination and any appropriate records. If another option better protects your health, it will be discussed.
Will I receive a written cost?
Yes. You receive an itemised estimate after assessment. It may change only if clinical findings or your chosen plan change, which we discuss first.
Can I take time to decide?
Of course. Elective treatment is never rushed; you can review the information and return with questions.
