Veneers & Lumineers in Guelph
What Is a Dental Veneer?
Veneers are thin pieces of durable, tooth-shaped porcelain that are custom-made to match the shape and colour of your teeth by a dental laboratory.
Our dentists use veneers to create a more consistent smile for our Guelph patients. Your dentist bonds the restoration to the front of your natural tooth to change the symmetry, shape, or colour of your smile.
Lumineers®
We offer Lumineers to our Guelph patients. Lumineers are thin veneers that can often be placed with little to no removal of the natural tooth structure.
How Veneers Work
Your dentist will take an impression of your teeth which will be used to create your custom veneers.
Once your veneers have been made, they will be bonded to the fronts of your natural teeth.
Made from a razor-thin piece of porcelain, veneers are custom-shaped to match your tooth. The porcelain imitates the natural translucency of tooth enamel and provides a very natural look and feel.
Features of Veneers
Whether you are looking to alter the shape of individual teeth or the evenness of your whole smile, you may want to consider dental veneers as a less-intrusive alternative to dental crowns.
Issues that dental veneers can resolve include worn, crooked, or discoloured teeth. They can also reduce unwanted spacing and change the size of your teeth.
If cared for properly, dental veneers can last for many years.
