Constructed from custom-made shells that fit over the front surfaces of your teeth, dental veneers are quickly gaining more momentum by creating a seamless, natural-looking smile that feels just as good as it looks.
Straightening crooked teeth without the need for braces, covering up gaps between your teeth and enhancing your smile, dental veneers are a great all-rounder. From covering dark stains on your teeth to hiding poorly shaped or chipped teeth, the improvements that veneers can have on your smile are endless.
Dental veneers are thin pieces of tooth-coloured porcelain that are cemented to the front surfaces of your natural teeth. Custom moulded and bonded with expert precision, dental veneers are designed exclusively for each client throughout the experience.
With the heightening pressure to live up to social media’s expectations of so-called “perfection”, dental veneers are a quick and easy way to make your teeth look brighter and whiter, transforming your smile into a glamorous one and gaining confidence all at once.
Dental veneers are a great choice for people wanting to improve their smile and take their appearance to unreached heights. A highly effective solution, dental veneers also present the following benefits:
When you visit Widcombe Dental for your dental implant treatment plan, your journey will commence as:
The dentist will evaluate your teeth to determine if you are a good candidate for veneers. They may also evaluate your gums to ensure they are disease-free.
The dentist may need to file down your teeth to remove a thin layer of enamel so the veneer can be attached. This is done to ensure the veneer fits correctly.
The dentist will take an impression of your teeth using a 3D digital scanner.
The dentist will colour-match the veneers to your teeth, with a few shades lighter to brighten those pearly whites!
Your impressions will then be sent to a laboratory where the veneers will be fabricated. The veneers can be made from composite or porcelain.
The dentist will attach the veneers to your teeth using dental cement and a unique adhesive. They will shape the veneers until you have a natural-looking smile.
The dentist will check your bite and make any final adjustments to ensure the veneers feel comfortable and function properly.
An ideal option for people who want to improve the appearance of their smile, but have minor cosmetic issues with their teeth, veneers can help to hide anyone with:

However, after the procedure, it can take a couple of weeks for your mouth to adjust to the changes that have been made. This can take place with the following:
Please note that this is completely normal to feel these effects – you should not experience any major discomfort during the placement.
Most dental veneers are permanent and are not reversible, due to the procedure revolving around attaching thin, tooth-coloured porcelain veneers to the front of your teeth after removing some of your enamel.
Therefore, it is important to look after your dental veneers properly to not only keep them pristine but extend their lifespan for as long as possible.
At Widcombe Dental, we can curate your own personalised plan with regular check-ups and hygiene tips to keep your smile in shape.

Just like most things, signs of wear will gradually affect the veneers, so they will need to be replaced at some point to keep their condition in check.
With the current day presenting many different dental materials for the dental veneers to be made out of, there is a large choice of dental materials to choose from when selecting dental veneers.
Depending on the type of smile that you’re going for, there are many types of veneers to choose from, including:
