What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are thin layers of porcelain which we can bond to the front of your teeth.
Without the need for major surgery, veneers improve the appearance of smiles with –
- Gaps
- Chips
- Cracks
- Discolouration
- Misalignment in teeth
Porcelain veneers have a similar strength and colour to natural teeth. The layers of translucent porcelain allows light to shine through, reflecting off the opaque tooth dentine below the surface, giving the appearance of brighter, natural-looking teeth.
We also offer Edelweiss Direct Veneers which are a white filling variant, treated by a laser to give a highly glossy surface. These prefabricated direct veneers require you to attend only one appointment from start to finish.
Using either Porcelain Veneers or Edelweiss Same Day Veneers our dental practices can rejuvenate your smile.
Edelweiss Direct Veneers
Edelweiss Direct Veneers are an innovative procedure available at Lismore House Dental. So far we have had outstanding results and very happy patients!
These veneers are suitable for nervous patients who would like to minimise their time with us, or if you are in a hurry and don’t have time to wait for the creation of bespoke porcelain veneers.
Your teeth do need to be relatively straight to be a candidate for these delicate veneers, although they can also help to improve darker teeth and to close gaps between front teeth.
In most cases our dental team will prepare your tooth before fitting the veneer. The Edelweiss Veneers are very thin, almost clear so we use different coloured bonding to change the colour as required. They provide a simpler alternative to porcelain veneers.
