Porcelain Veneers

The benefits of porcelain veneers

Porcelain veneers offer a wide range of wonderful benefits, making them a great solution to address various dental concerns:

• Alignment of crooked teeth: Veneers provide a seamless and aesthetically pleasing solution for straightening misaligned teeth.
• Concealing discolouration: discoloured teeth are effectively concealed, and the porcelain material ensures a natural and vibrant appearance.
• Restoration of damaged teeth: Chipped or damaged teeth are meticulously restored, enhancing both functionality and aesthetics.

With porcelain veneers, she’ll help you regain your confidence and give you long-lasting results. 

Tailored solutions for a dazzling smile

What are porcelain veneers? A veneer is a durable, custom-made shell made from strong porcelain or resin. Veneers are designed to match your natural teeth shape, size and colour and offer both durability and functionality while remaining aesthetically pleasing. 

Dr Kat understands every smile is unique, and from her Alderley dental clinic offers a range of porcelain veneers that are renowned for their strength and natural appearance. If you are looking for a less invasive option, composite veneers are a good alternative.

Comprehensive cosmetic veneer treatment

Dr Kat will conduct a thorough examination using the latest advances in technology and Digital Smile Design to create a comprehensive treatment plan to address your specific needs. The porcelain veneers will be tailored to perfectly fit your teeth and applied with precision to ensure they complement your natural features. 

The cosmetic veneer process includes a consultation and treatment planning with Dr Kat utilising Digital Smile Design, followed by the preparation of the teeth and the creation of custom veneers. Temporary veneers may be used during fabrication. The final veneers are bonded to the teeth, and adjustments are made to ensure a perfect fit.

However, your journey doesn’t end after the procedure; it continues with comprehensive aftercare and maintenance. With Dr Kat’s expert care, your porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years or longer, ensuring a radiant and confident smile for years to come.

No-prep veneers

Dr Kat offers no-prep veneers, a fast and transformational solution for enhancing your smile, without the extensive tooth preparation. No-prep veneers are easier than traditional veneers and offer long-lasting results of 5 to 7 years or more, and the best part – without the need for local anaesthesia. 

There are various types of no-prep veneers, catering to a range of preferences. The procedure involves examination, impressions, veneer creation, and bonding and preserving tooth structure. While effective for extrinsic and some intrinsic discolouration, they may not suit extensively damaged or deeply discoloured teeth. Dr Kat will carefully evaluate your eligibility for veneers, recognising that not everyone may be suitable for this cosmetic procedure.
