Dental veneers are now more popular than ever, thanks to their ability to protect, repair, and boost the overall appeal of your teeth, especially when you smile. If you require the services of a dentist in Bendigo who has extensive experience in dental veneers, you have come to the right place.

A dental veneer is a custom-tailored shell made from either porcelain or composite materials that is placed over a tooth to conceal aesthetic imperfections.

They are used as a cosmetic solution for various dental challenges such as:

• Misaligned teeth and/or tooth shape irregularity
• Damaged teeth
• Chipped or broken teeth
• Uneven coloured teeth due to generally poor oral hygiene habits
• Uneven gaps between teeth

With today’s advancements in dental technology, dental veneers usually last between 10 and 30 years. However, natural wear and tear over the years can cause them to get damaged, especially considering they are going to be used on a daily basis. In the event your dental veneers get damaged, they need to be replaced.

One major advantage of wearing dental veneers is that they have a natural look and cannot be easily differentiated between your natural teeth. Well-designed porcelain veneers are easily tolerated by the gums and are stain-resistant, providing a cleaner look that is longer lasting than other cosmetic alternatives.

In most cases, enamel removal is required to create space for the placement of a veneer. You might think this could lead to increased tooth sensitivity, but we assure you it is not a cause for concern since getting sensitive teeth as a result of wearing veneers is a very rare occurrence.
