Dental Veneers
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made covers designed to fit over the front surface of your teeth. Made from porcelain or composite resin, they improve the appearance of your smile by concealing cosmetic imperfections like chips, stains, small gaps, or misshapen teeth. Veneers are a popular cosmetic dental solution for people looking for a whiter, more even smile.

What is Dental Veneer Treatment Used For?
Dental veneers are used to enhance the appearance of your teeth by addressing a range of cosmetic issues. They are an excellent option for covering discoloured or stained teeth that don't respond well to whitening treatments. Veneers can also conceal small chips or cracks, close gaps between teeth (known as diastema), and make teeth that are naturally small or short appear more even. In addition, they improve the appearance of mildly misaligned or uneven teeth and help restore the shape of teeth that have been worn down or damaged due to habits like grinding (bruxism).
