Transform your teeth with porcelain veneers from South East London dentist

04 / 02 / 2010

Wouldn’t it be easy if there was a single quick fix to restore the appearance of badly worn or discoloured teeth? Or if there was just one single treatment to correct chipped, cracked or unevenly spaced teeth? Well, there is, in the shape of porcelain veneers. Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic shells that can be fixed over the top of existing teeth with resin bonding to completely transform the appearance of damaged teeth in only a single afternoon.

Modern porcelain veneers are also so thin that not only do they have the translucent appearance of real tooth enamel but they no longer require the removal of substantial amounts of enamel in order to fit naturally in the dental arc. Modern techniques of manufacturing porcelain veneers utilise the latest digital x-ray and computer technology which has significantly reduced the amount of time needed to fabricate them. This has reduced the number of appointments needed, increased the comfort levels of the patient and reduced the overall treatment time.

Veneers will generally require two or three appointments with the dentist, with the first being an initial consultation to assess suitability. At the next appointment the London SE1 dentist will prepare the teeth for the veneers and then begin to attaché them with the resin bonding. At this stage adjustments can still be made to the size and shape of the veneers before the bonding is set firm using a dental laser.

Depending on how many veneers are being fitted at any one time, it may be possible to completely transform the teeth in only one appointment. When set firm, any excess bonding is removed and the veneers polished and buffed to match the existing teeth creating a stunning new smile.
