Porcelain and composite
The making process, repair options and material properties differ. Choose around your teeth and needs rather than brightness in a photograph alone.
Veneers cover the front surface of a tooth to change its shape or colour. Porcelain and composite have different properties. An assessment of tooth structure, the bite and gums comes before comparing veneers, whitening, orthodontics or other restorations.

The making process, repair options and material properties differ. Choose around your teeth and needs rather than brightness in a photograph alone.
Whether and how much preparation is needed depends on original tooth position and the goal. Not every veneer can be placed without removing tooth structure.
Biting forces and grinding affect the plan. Discuss everyday use and possible protective measures.
Check teeth, gums and the bite, and discuss goals for colour, length and shape.
The chosen material guides design, preparation and any temporary restoration. Each stage is explained before proceeding.
Fit, shape and bite are checked, followed by cleaning advice and ongoing review.
Fees depend on material, the number of teeth and the design and preparation required. Ask about temporary restorations, adjustments and future repairs or replacements.
PAYMENT & HEALTH FUNDSExplore common questions, then discuss what is suitable for you at an individual assessment.
Not always. Veneers change shape while orthodontics changes position. Significant alignment or bite concerns need a full assessment.
It depends on the original tooth and design. No-preparation veneers are not suitable for everyone. Understand any irreversible steps beforehand.
This depends on the position and extent of damage. Sometimes repair is possible; sometimes replacement is needed. Have the dentist assess it.
Continue brushing, cleaning between teeth and attending checks. Avoid using teeth as tools to open or bite hard objects.
