Veneers

Veneers are a versatile solution for treating decayed, discoloured and damaged teeth and can be likened to how a false nail fits over a natural one.

Hand-crafted from porcelain, veneers are bonded to the tooth that requires attention, protecting it from further damage. They can also be used to address spacing issues.

What can I expect from veneers treatment?

Veneers require very little preparation and can be performed in just two visits. We will remove a tiny amount of tooth enamel, so the damaged tooth can accommodate the veneer. Your dentist here at Bricketwood Practice will take impressions of your teeth, so your veneers can be made to measure. These impressions are sent off to the off-site dental lab and once we receive your veneer, we can invite you back for a fitting. Your veneer will be bonded using a strong adhesive and any necessary tweaks will be addressed.
