WHAT IS A PORCELAIN VENEER?
Porcelain Veneers are thin shells of bespoke glass ceramic that are fitted over our Sydney patients real teeth to cosmetically and functionally change your smile. Porcelain Veneers can be used on single teeth that have been damaged or broken or multiple teeth to completely transform your smile. Porcelain Veneers are permanently bonded to the outside enamel layer of your tooth, and a small amount is usually removed to create space for the porcelain. The best real life comparison is a false fingernail over a natural nail!

-
Porcelain Veneers are very strong, and it is unlikely that they will break or fall off, but excessive use of force such as chewing ice or bones can break veneers, just like natural teeth can break.

Porcelain veneers need the same maintenance that regular teeth do as they are placed over your natural teeth. Daily care at home, as well as regular visits to the dentist are essential to ensure they are kept strong. Wearing a night guard at night is also necessary to prevent chipping from teeth grinding.
