Porcelain Veneers

A veneer is a new front surface for a tooth, custom made from porcelain. Veneers are extremely versatile and can be used to align crowded or protruding teeth, to close gaps, or lighten tooth color. Their strength and appearance is similar to natural teeth and they can make a huge difference to your smile.

Having a veneer fitted at praxis clinic will usually take three to four visits. At the first visit you have your check up and we plan your treatment. At the second visit the tooth is prepared and the shades are matched. The veneer is checked and fitted at the third visit in case no modification is required. Your teeth are prepared by removing very thin layer of enamel from the outer surface of the tooth, so that the veneer can be attached at a later date. An impression of the teeth will be taken and the colours matched on a shade guide.

Depending on the site of the prepared tooth you may need to wear a temporary veneer till the time your veneer is prepared.
