Enhance Your Smile
Small imperfections in teeth can stand out, whether it’s chips, discolouration or uneven spacing. Veneers can provide a way to refine tooth appearance with custom-made, thin shells that cover the front surface. At Advanced Dental Southern Highlands, veneers are designed to match the natural look of teeth, helping create a more uniform and polished smile.
Each veneer is tailored in size, shape and colour. Whether used for a single tooth or multiple, veneers offer a long-lasting option for enhancing tooth structure. They are often chosen for their durability and ability to blend naturally with surrounding teeth.
The process includes preparation, precise fitting and bonding to help ensure comfort and stability. To find out if veneers are the right option, schedule a consultation in Moss Vale by calling (02) 4868 2433.
Our Veneers Process
Veneers are custom-designed to improve the look of teeth while maintaining a natural feel. The process with Advanced Dental Southern Highlands:
- Begins with an initial consultation to assess tooth shape, size and colour
- A thin layer of enamel may be adjusted to ensure a proper fit
- Impressions are taken to create the veneers, which are crafted to match the surrounding teeth
- Temporary veneers may be placed while the final versions are being made
- Once ready, the permanent veneers are carefully bonded to the teeth, ensuring a secure and natural-looking result
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do veneers last?
The lifespan of veneers depends on the material and daily habits. With good care, porcelain veneers typically last 10–15 years, while composite veneers may last 5–7 years. Regular check-ups, proper oral hygiene and avoiding excessive pressure on the teeth help maintain their condition over time.
Do veneers require special care?
Veneers do not need special products, but maintaining good oral hygiene is essential. Brushing twice daily, flossing and avoiding habits like biting on hard objects or grinding teeth can help preserve their appearance. Regular dental visits also help ensure the veneers and surrounding teeth can stay in good condition.
Can veneers stain over time?
Porcelain veneers are resistant to staining, while composite veneers may develop discolouration over time. To maintain their appearance, it’s best to limit staining foods and drinks like coffee, red wine and tea. Good oral hygiene and regular cleanings also help preserve their natural colour.
Are veneers reversible?
Once placed, porcelain veneers are not reversible, as a small amount of enamel is removed to ensure a proper fit. Composite veneers may be adjusted or replaced more easily. Before getting veneers, a consultation helps determine the best approach based on long-term goals and dental health.
Are Veneers Suitable for Me?
Veneers are often chosen for their ability to:
- Refine tooth appearance without extensive procedures
- Address discolouration that does not respond to whitening
- Conceal minor chips, uneven edges and slight misalignment
- Close small gaps between teeth without orthodontic treatment
The decision to get veneers depends on several factors, including enamel thickness and long-term care considerations. Regular brushing, flossing and check-ups help maintain veneers and surrounding teeth.
While durable, veneers should be treated with care—avoiding habits like biting on hard objects can help prolong their lifespan. For those looking for a solution to help refine their smile, veneers fitted by Advanced Dental Southern Highlands can offer a custom approach.
