Smile Makeovers and Porcelain Laminate Veneers
Smile makeovers are not just for film stars. What seems a cosmetic issue can often indicate or cause dental problems best addressed before they become complicated and painful.
Using advanced bonding techniques and porcelain laminate veneers our clinicians can rejuvenate your smile. Porcelain Veneers are a strong, conservative and natural looking way to change the shape, colour and alignment of the teeth.
‘Instantaneous orthodontics,’ for those who do not wish to undergo orthodontic treatment veneers can be used to correct misalignment, rotations and spacing of teeth in a matter of weeks.
Veneers can best be described as being like false fingernails; they are thin pieces of porcelain between 0.3 and 0.5mm thick which are bonded to the front surface of your own teeth.
Porcelain Laminate Veneers can be used to improve the aesthetic appearance of worn, malaligned and or damaged teeth. See examples of cases recently treated by Dr Patel.
1) Tooth Wear 2) Tooth Erosion, 3) Tooth Malalignment
The use of Porcelain Laminate Veneers is usually minimally invasive and in some cases we can place the latest NO PREPARATION Lumineers (as seen on TV) onto the natural tooth structure. Provided a good oral hygiene routine is followed, they are a long-term solution to a number of problems and could change not only your smile but your life.
