Veneers are thin restorations placed on the front surfaces of teeth to improve appearance—often used for shape, size, colour, or minor alignment concerns when clinically appropriate.

When veneers may be suitable

Veneers may be discussed for concerns like:

• Worn or chipped front teeth (case-dependent)
• Discolouration that doesn’t respond well to whitening options (depends on cause)
• Minor shape/size inconsistencies you want to refine

Veneers aren’t the right choice for every smile. We assess gum health, bite, and tooth structure before recommending treatment.

Types of veneers (general)

Depending on your goals, we may discuss options such as porcelain or composite veneers—each with different strengths, aesthetics, and maintenance considerations.

What to expect

We focus on planning: photos, measurements, and a discussion of alternatives (including orthodontics when appropriate). We want you to understand trade-offs before proceeding.

Maintenance

Veneers can chip or wear if exposed to hard habits (e.g., biting hard objects). Protective strategies and regular visits help.
