What are dental Veneers
Dental veneers are a very popular treatment in cosmetic dentistry for people who want to improve the way their smile looks. A dental veneer is a very thin shell made from strong, high-quality porcelain that is specially shaped to fit the front surface of your teeth. Because they are custom-made for each person, veneers blend in naturally with your smile and look just like real teeth. They are strong, long-lasting, and can cover chips, stains, or uneven teeth.
At JJ Smiles Dental in Oxenford, Gold Coast, we offer dental veneers to patients from Coomera, Helensvale, Pacific Pines, Hope Island, Maudsland, Tamborine Mountain, and nearby suburbs.
Benefits of Dental Veneers
Aesthetic Enhancements:
Veneers can effectively address a variety of cosmetic concerns, including:
- Discoloration
- Chipped or fractured teeth
- Minor tooth misalignment
- Gaps between teeth
- Uneven smiles
At JJ Smiles Dental and Implant Centre we take great care in crafting your veneers to replicate the subtle details, translucencies, and colour nuances of natural teeth, ensuring the most authentic and lifelike results.
Types of Veneers: Composite vs. Porcelain
Dental veneers are a popular choice for those looking to enhance the appearance of their smile. There are two primary types of veneers: porcelain and composite.
Porcelain Veneers:
Porcelain veneers are custom-made, ultra-thin shells crafted from high-quality porcelain. These are carefully designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, offering a durable, natural-looking solution that transforms your smile with a seamless and long-lasting finish.
Together with our expert team, you’ll design your ideal smile. Our thorough consultation process allows you to share your treatment goals and collaborate with us on choosing the perfect colour, shape, and overall look of your veneers. One of the key advantages of CAD-CAM technology is the ability to provide a 3D render of your design. This allows you to preview and refine your ‘new smile’ before moving forward, ensuring every detail aligns with your vision.
Composite Veneers:
Composite veneers are a restorative treatment where a composite resin is applied to the front surface of the teeth. Our skilled dentist’s layer and shape the resin to achieve your desired aesthetic result.
Composite veneers offer a more conservative approach to cosmetic enhancement, as the resin is directly bonded to the enamel. This method can improve tooth colour, shape, and alignment, typically requiring minimal or no tooth preparation.
Durability and Maintenance
With proper care and regular dental check-ups, both composite and porcelain veneers can last for many years. To ensure their longevity, it is important to treat your veneers with the same care as your natural teeth.
Porcelain Veneers:
- Durability: Porcelain veneers are exceptionally durable, lasting between 10 to 15 years or more with proper care. They are highly resistant to staining and chipping, making them an excellent long-term option.
- Maintenance: Maintaining porcelain veneers requires regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene habits. While they are less prone to needing frequent repairs, it is important to protect them from excessive force. Wearing a night guard can help prevent damage from teeth grinding or clenching during sleep.
Composite Veneers:
- Durability: Composite veneers generally last between 5 to 7 years, depending on the quality of the material and the patient’s oral care habits. They are more susceptible to chipping, staining, and wear compared to porcelain veneers.
- Maintenance: To keep composite veneers in optimal condition, regular dental visits and professional cleanings are essential. Practicing good oral hygiene, such as brushing twice a day and flossing, will help maintain their appearance. It is also important to avoid habits that can damage the veneers, such as biting nails, chewing ice, or using teeth to open objects. Composite veneers may require occasional polishing or repairs to keep them looking their best.
