Natural-looking smile enhancement, carefully planned for you

Dental veneers are a cosmetic dental treatment designed to improve the appearance of teeth affected by discolouration, chipping, uneven edges or minor spacing concerns. At Smile On Clinics, veneers are custom planned and placed with a focus on natural aesthetics, function and long-term oral health.

As every smile is unique, a personalised consultation is essential to determine whether dental veneers are suitable for your individual needs.

What are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of teeth to enhance their colour, shape, size or alignment. When carefully planned and placed, veneers are designed to blend naturally with surrounding teeth.

Veneers may be considered to:

Improve tooth colour that does not respond to whitening
Repair chipped or worn teeth
Improve uneven tooth shape or size
Close small gaps between teeth
Create a more balanced smile appearance

Types of dental veneers

Porcelain veneers

Porcelain veneers are custom crafted from high-quality ceramic and bonded to the front of the teeth. They may be suitable for patients seeking natural-looking results and long-term resistance to staining. With appropriate care, porcelain veneers may last many years, though longevity varies between individuals.

Composite veneers

Composite veneers are created using tooth-coloured resin applied directly to the tooth surface. They may be suitable for minor cosmetic improvements or where a more conservative approach is preferred. Composite veneers generally have a shorter lifespan and may be more prone to wear or staining over time.

Potential benefits of dental veneers

Improved tooth colour and brightness

Have adequate tooth structure and enamel

Are willing to maintain good oral hygiene
