Tooth Discolouration
Some persistent colour concerns may be considered for veneers when whitening is not suitable or does not address the concern.
Explore dental veneers as one option for improving the appearance of selected teeth. Veneers may be considered for concerns involving tooth colour, shape, size, or minor visible irregularities.
The right approach depends on your oral health, natural teeth, and smile goals. A dental consultation can help you understand suitability, alternatives, and the care involved.
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made coverings bonded to the front surface of selected teeth. Depending on the case and material, they can change aspects of a tooth's visible colour, shape, size, or overall appearance.
Veneers are not the best choice for every dental concern. A dentist needs to assess your teeth and gums, your bite, existing restorations, and the amount of healthy tooth structure available.
For selected patients, veneers may be considered to improve the appearance of visible front teeth.
Some persistent colour concerns may be considered for veneers when whitening is not suitable or does not address the concern.
Veneers may change the visible shape or proportions of selected teeth as part of a planned treatment.
Certain small chips may be suitable for cosmetic treatment, depending on their location and the tooth's condition.
In selected cases, veneers may alter the appearance of spaces between teeth. Orthodontic options may also be discussed.
Veneers may help adjust the visible proportions of teeth when the bite and dental condition allow.
They may form part of a wider cosmetic plan after your oral health and expectations have been assessed.
Veneers require careful planning and may involve removing some natural tooth enamel. Depending on the preparation and material, treatment may not be reversible.
Untreated decay, gum disease, significant tooth damage, teeth grinding, or certain bite concerns can affect suitability. Your dentist can discuss these factors and whether other options may better meet your needs.
The process depends on your individual case and the type of treatment recommended.
Explain what you would like to change and share any concerns about the appearance or function of your teeth.
Your dentist can examine your teeth, gums, and bite and discuss whether veneers are appropriate.
Discuss suitable materials, expected steps, potential limitations, aftercare, and alternatives before making a decision.
Good daily oral hygiene and professional advice help support the health of your teeth and gums around veneers.
Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush.
Clean between teeth every day to help maintain healthy gums and remove plaque.
Follow your dentist's advice about reviews and report any discomfort, looseness, or damage.
Depending on your concerns, other treatments may be worth discussing with your dentist.
Veneers are used to change the visible appearance of selected teeth, including aspects of colour, shape, and size. Suitability depends on your oral health and treatment goals.
Veneers can require removal of some natural enamel, making the process irreversible in many cases. They may also need repair or replacement over time.
The appearance depends on planning, material selection, tooth condition, and individual factors. Your dentist can discuss realistic expectations for your case.
Veneers may change the appearance of some minor irregularities, but they do not move teeth. Orthodontic treatment may be more appropriate for alignment or bite concerns.
Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, clean between your teeth, attend dental reviews, and follow your dentist's advice about protecting your teeth from excessive forces.
