Dental Veneers

Overview

Dental veneers are thin, individually crafted shells bonded to the visible surface of teeth. They can address discolouration that does not respond to whitening, minor chips, gaps and irregular shapes — as part of a considered smile design.

Because veneers involve preparing the tooth surface, they are a considered, longer-term choice. Your dentist will discuss whether veneers, or a more conservative option, best fit your goals and dental health.
