Veneers are the equivalent of ‘false nails’ for teeth. They are made of porcelain and are either glued onto your existing tooth after it has been reshaped or in some cases applied directly onto teeth.

It's no secret that film stars and celebrities keenly seek this form of treatment to create their perfect smile. You may say it's a professional requirement. This is considered to be the state-of-the-art cosmetic treatment and is now widely available to anyone who wants it.

Unlike caps and crowns, veneers only cover the front surface of a tooth. They are individually handcrafted from porcelain by a highly skilled experienced technician and they are used to rectify many defects, examples of which are shown in the photo gallery. These include closing gaps, realigning crowded and protruding teeth, and whitening discoloured teeth.

Porcelain veneers are very strong and last up to fifteen years, providing a lasting smile. They look very natural so people will not know you've had the treatment unless you tell them. They are easy to look after with no special care needed.
