How veneers work
- A veneer is a very thin, tooth-coloured piece of porcelain, a little like a false fingernail but more durable, bonded on top of your own tooth.
- The shape and size of veneers can be adjusted to make your teeth look longer or closer together.
- You can have just one veneer or a whole set as part of a smile makeover.
Veneers can also close small gaps when braces are not suitable, and a single veneer can sometimes bring one slightly out-of-line tooth into line with the others.
Benefits
- Quick way to improve the look of teeth
- Long-lasting smile enhancement
- Natural-looking restoration
