Veneers.

A veneer is a thin layer of material that is either directly built up in the mouth or indirectly fabricated in a dental laboratory by a dental technician which is then later placed over a tooth, either to improve the aesthetics of a tooth or to protect damage to a tooth’s surface.

There are two main types of material used to fabricate a veneer: composite and dental porcelain.

A composite veneer may be directly built up and placed, or indirectly fabricated by a dental technician in a dental laboratory, and later bonded to the tooth, typically using resin cement. In comparison, a porcelain veneer may only be indirectly fabricated.

Porcelain Veneers can change the colour, shape and length of your teeth and completely transform your smile! Dr Tony Dey has done hundreds of veneer cases, allowing his patients to smile with confidence.
