Is it right for me?
Porcelain veneers not only offer an important esthetic change, but also help to solve several dental and functional problems. This treatment is especially recommended for people with the following conditions:
Damaged teeth: if you have teeth affected by decay, fractures or wear, veneers can restore their shape and functionality.
Spaces between teeth (diastemas): This procedure is ideal for closing visible spaces between teeth, achieving a more uniform smile.
Stains or tooth discoloration: If your teeth are stained due to the consumption of certain foods, beverages or previous dental treatments, porcelain veneers can give them a natural glow.
Irregularities in shape or size: Veneers are an excellent solution for uneven or irregularly shaped teeth, creating a more harmonious and symmetrical appearance.
Bite problems: This treatment can also correct unbalanced bites, improving chewing function and optimizing contact between upper and lower teeth.

Porcelain Veneers vs. Composites
Choosing between porcelain or composite veneers will depend on your specific needs and the characteristics of each material. Below is a comparison of the two options:
Porcelain veneers
They offer superior aesthetics due to their ability to mimic the translucency of natural teeth.
They are highly resistant to fracture and wear, ensuring a long service life.
Their non-porous surface makes them resistant to stains caused by food and beverages such as coffee, wine or tea.
They require minimally invasive preparation of the tooth, preserving much of the natural enamel.
In addition to beautifying, they improve bite and dental functionality.
Composite veneers
Advantages:
They require minimal preparation of the tooth, making them less invasive.
They can be placed in a single session, offering fast and comfortable treatment.
Their cost is more affordable compared to porcelain veneers.
They are easily repairable or adjustable if necessary.
Considerations:
Although they have good aesthetic results, they are less durable and resistant compared to porcelain veneers.
They are more prone to wear and may stain over time due to exposure to certain foods, beverages or tobacco.
In summary, while composite veneers can be a quick and economical solution, porcelain veneers offer a long-lasting option that combines functionality and a natural look.

Benefits
Beyond their aesthetic impact, porcelain veneers offer numerous functional and emotional benefits:
Balanced bite: By improving dental alignment, this treatment helps restore a more stable bite, making chewing easier and reducing areas of bacterial buildup.
Prevention of dental problems: By correcting imperfections and improving the contact between teeth, veneers can help prevent cavities and other dental problems.
Increased self-esteem: A refreshed smile boosts personal confidence, improving both personal and professional quality of life.
These benefits make porcelain veneers much more than just a cosmetic enhancement – they are an investment in your dental health and well-being.

Process:
The placement of porcelain veneers is a procedure that, when performed correctly and by the right personnel, guarantees optimal results. Below, we explain the main steps:
Initial evaluation: Your dentist will perform a thorough analysis of your teeth and facial features to design a customized smile that highlights your best features.
Dental preparation: A small layer of tooth enamel will be removed to create enough space for the veneers. Before this step, it is essential that your teeth and gums are completely healthy, free of cavities and periodontal disease.
Dental impression: An accurate impression of your teeth will be taken to fabricate the custom veneers in the lab.
Temporary veneers: While the final veneers are being prepared, temporary veneers will be placed to protect your teeth and maintain a pleasing appearance.
Final placement: Once ready, the final veneers will be fitted and bonded to your teeth with a special dental adhesive.
Fitting and Checking: The dentist will check that the veneers fit perfectly, that the dental contacts are correct and that the final result is comfortable and functional.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of problems can porcelain veneers address?
Why are porcelain veneers so special?
Porcelain veneers are superior to composite veneers for restoring unsightly teeth. Porcelain is the closest match to real tooth enamel, capturing its translucency almost perfectly.
Porcelain Veneers are a long-lasting solution that looks completely natural.
Can I have more than a single tooth treated with a veneer?
Yes. We can perform a smile makeover with veneers to improve the appearance of your whole smile. This involves using digital planning software to capture the precise measurements of your mouth. We can then work to design individual veneers that will sit together to create a proportioned, healthy-looking and aesthetic result.
Can porcelain veneers make my teeth straighter?
Mild cases of crooked and misaligned teeth can be solved with veneers. However, if you wish to make a more significant difference to the way your teeth sit in your mouth, you may wish to consider our orthodontic treatment options here at Westmount Dental.
Can porcelain veneers whiten my teeth?
Porcelain veneers go beyond teeth whitening treatment in their ability to whiten your teeth. If you are looking for the whitest shade possible for your teeth, we recommend opting for porcelain veneers.
Who is a suitable candidate for porcelain veneers?
You will need to meet the following criteria prior to having porcelain veneers:
Healthy teeth and gums.
X-ray to check the supporting structures in your mouth are healthy.
No missing teeth or restorations (crowns and veneers) or failing fillings.
No substantial gaps between your teeth.
No considerable structural damage to individual teeth (must have no more than a quarter of a tooth missing).
Relatively well-aligned teeth.
How do porcelain veneers and composite veneers compare?
Porcelain veneers are the premium choice of the two treatments. However, we recommend composite veneers as an entry-level treatment for patients who have not had a veneer before. Composite is also more suitable when there is less damage present, as it is not as restorative as porcelain veneers.
Unlike composite veneers, porcelain veneers are not prone to staining. However, you will still need to adhere to a healthy diet if you wish to keep your veneer in good condition for a number of years.
What does the porcelain veneer treatment journey involve?
Your porcelain veneers are created by taking photographs and scans of your teeth. You will be shown a state-of-the-art 3D model of what your smile will look like once the porcelain veneers have been fitted (this is what makes the outcome so predictable). During the design phase, we will make any necessary adjustments to the shape and shade and make sure you are happy with the proposed cosmetic outcome.
When your porcelain veneer has been created by our talented cosmetic dental technician, we will ask you to come in and see us so that the adhesive can be applied. To place the porcelain veneer, we will need to remove some natural tooth structure so that there is sufficient surface area to place it over the top. Your Porcelain Veneer is then firmly adhered to the tooth.
Do you offer finance for dental treatment?
Yes, we offer interest-free and interest-bearing finance so that high-quality dental care is accessible to all our patients.
I’m embarrassed about coming in – can you help?
We understand that coming in to seek implant-based treatments is a huge life event. Our clinicians are compassionate people who encounter many patients who feel self-conscious about the condition of their mouths. We understand how debilitating lost teeth can be, particularly on your confidence levels and your everyday happiness. We are very happy to book you in for a practice tour or an appointment with our treatment coordinator in a non-clinical setting before your consultation.
