Dental veneers have several types. The most common permanent veneers are porcelain veneers and composite veneers
They can solve the following dental problems:
  • Cracked or broken teeth
  • Crooked teeth
  • Gapped teeth
  • Stained teeth that can't be whitened with teeth whitening
  • Chipped or worn
  • Poorly shaped
  • Smaller teeth
Traditional dental veneers involve grinding down the tooth structure but usually need the removal of some teeth, even past the enamel. This is an irreversible treatment that might be uncomfortable and requires anesthesia.
If you take care of your veneers properly, they can last up to 15 or 20 years. Practising good oral hygiene habits and regular dental appointments are essential factors in maintaining their lifespan. Cleaning your veneers every six months is a simple way to keep them looking new while keeping you smiling and comfortable.
Veneers may have side effects and risks, including teeth sensitivity, tooth decay, and gum recession, so it’s critical to understand your options before deciding on veneers as a treatment option.
They are a quick way to achieve your dream of having a dazzling smile. However, it is essential to remember that we recommend you consult with a dentist if you have any underlying oral problems.

FAQ's About Getting Veneers in Gosnells

Veneers are not usually covered by insurance because they are considered cosmetic treatments. You can ask your private health insurance if they cover veneers. The cost of your veneers is determined by different factors such as the type of veneers you prefer, the brand name available at your dentist, your dentists location, and the dentist’s expertise.

In Gosnells, the average price of porcelain veneers can cost $1253 to $1817. In contrast, composite resin veneers can range from $440 to $706.

Veneers are ideal for people whose teeth are naturally yellow or have a grey hue and do not respond well with teeth bleaching. They are also an option for patients who have a chip or crack in their teeth and want to fix the shape while protecting the tooth from additional damage.

Veneers make teeth seem better while also protecting and strengthening them. Having good oral health, gums, and sufficient tooth enamel is ideal for getting veneers. Also, individuals who practise good dental hygiene habits such as regular brushing and flossing daily may be suitable candidates.

It is highly recommended to consult with a dentist to determine if dental veneers are a good option for you.

As with any dental treatment, there could be some discomfort during the porcelain veneers procedure. Although the removal of dental enamel may cause some discomfort, the placement of porcelain and composite veneers is usually painless.

Dental veneers are a relatively quick procedure that can significantly improve the appearance of your teeth. However, the treatment may carry risks. Included are the following:

  • Misaligned bite and jaw pain.
  • May be an Irreversible treatment.
  • If a veneer chips or cracks, it may not be able to repair it. But particular types of veneers or techniques can fix the problem.
  • Veneer falls off or cracks.
  • Those who clench and grind their teeth are poor candidates for porcelain veneers because this can cause them to crack or chip.
  • Because of loss of enamel, the teeth may undergo increased sensitivity.
  • Veneer margins are exposed by gum shrinkage.
  • Veneers retain their shades while the adjacent teeth discolour.
  • Veneers are not a good option for people with unhealthy teeth (such as decay or active gum disease), weakened teeth (due to decay, fracture, or major dental fillings), or those who do not have enough existing enamel on the tooth surface.

Veneers come in two varieties: composite resin and porcelain. The material used to make your veneers is determined by your personal preferences and budget.

  • Porcelain. For dental restorations, porcelain is the most aesthetic and least harmful material available. It is also the strongest and most durable of all veneer materials. Porcelain laminate veneers are highly biocompatible, meaning they rarely cause harm to the gum tissues and other soft tissues in the mouth. Because porcelain is so natural-looking, these veneers can dramatically improve the appearance of your smile.

  • Composite Resin Veneers. Composite veneers are composed of resin composite, which is an inorganic and organic material combination. The initiator, resin, and coupling agent are all-natural ingredients. The filler is the primary inorganic component of the composite resin. Composite resin veneers are made with the same bonding material as tooth-coloured dental fillings. Composite veneers, while strong, are not as long-lasting as porcelain veneers. Composite veneers are less expensive. They do, however, blend well with your real teeth colour but are more prone to staining.

  • Lumineers. Lumineers is a veneer brand. They are made of an ultra-thin porcelain laminate and require minimal preparation before placement. Compared to porcelain veneers, a less natural tooth structure is removed before a lumineer is placed over your tooth enamel. Lumineers are typically used to treat discoloured teeth or have misshapen teeth.

  • Removable Veneers (non-permanent). Because they do not require tooth reduction, removable veneers are less invasive, temporary, and less expensive than traditional veneers. Similar to transparent aligners, upper and lower tooth moulds are taken of your existing teeth. On the other hand, temporary veneers can be painful because they are not custom-fit and can be uncomfortable because they do not match your natural teeth as well.
There are several alternative procedures for veneers to achieve whiter and aligned teeth. These include dental crowns, professional or DIY teeth whitening, and orthodontics.
If you are considering getting veneers, first, you can expect a consultation with your dentist to discuss your medical history, previous dental treatment, and alternatives. Second, the procedure may involve tooth preparation depending on the type of veneers. Third, the bonding of veneers to the surface of your tooth and lastly, your dentist will discuss with you the proper aftercare of veneers.
Most private health insurance policies do not cover veneers because they do not typically cover cosmetic dentistry. However, we offer financing options that may match your budget.
