Simply Dental
is in west London and has dentist experts in cosmetic
dentistry, reshaping teeth (shortening,
lengthening, closing gaps and gum contouring).
A
veneer is a thin layer of porcelain made to fit
over the front surface of a tooth, like a false
fingernail fits over a nail. Sometimes a natural
colour ‘composite’ material is used
instead of porcelain. Veneers make teeth look natural
and healthy. Because they are very thin and are
held in place by a special strong bond (rather like
super-glue) very little preparation of the tooth
is needed.
Veneers can improve
the colour, shape and position of your teeth. A
precise shade of porcelain can be chosen to give
the right colour to improve a single discoloured
or stained tooth or to lighten front teeth (usually
the upper ones) generally. A veneer can make a chipped
tooth look intact again.
The porcelain covers the whole of the front of the tooth
with a thicker section replacing the broken part. Veneers
can also be used to close small gaps, when orthodontics
(braces) are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out
of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring
it into line with the others.
