Porcelain Veneers Treatment Procedure

At London Dental Specialists, our porcelain veneers treatment procedure is a precise, multi-step process designed to transform your smile. This third step in your smile makeover focuses on the actual placement of your custom-made veneers.

Preparation and Fitting

Your dentist will begin by carefully preparing your teeth for the veneers. This involves:

• Cleaning and polishing your teeth thoroughly


• Removing a thin layer of enamel (typically less than 0.5mm) to accommodate the veneer


• Etching the tooth surface to create a stronger bonding area

Veneer Placement

Once your teeth are prepared, your dentist will:

• Check the fit and colour of each veneer


• Make any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect fit


• Apply a special dental cement to bond the veneers to your teeth


• Use a light beam to harden the adhesive quickly

Final Touches

After placement, your dentist will:

• Remove any excess cement


• Evaluate your bite to ensure proper alignment


• Polish the veneers to achieve a natural lustre

Post Porcelain Veneers Treatment Care

Proper aftercare is essential for maintaining your new porcelain veneers and ensuring they last for 10-15 years or more. At London Dental Specialists, we provide comprehensive guidance on how to care for your investment after your treatment is complete.

Immediate Aftercare (First 48-72 Hours)

The first few days after your porcelain veneers placement are crucial for proper bonding and adjustment:

• Avoid hard, crunchy, or sticky foods that could potentially damage your new veneers


• Minimise consumption of staining substances such as coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco


• Take any prescribed pain relief if you experience mild sensitivity, which is normal and temporary


• Rinse with lukewarm water after meals to keep your veneers clean

Long-Term Maintenance

To maximise the lifespan of your porcelain veneers:

• Maintain excellent oral hygiene by brushing twice daily with a non-abrasive fluoride toothpaste


• Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to avoid scratching the porcelain surface


• Floss daily to remove plaque from between teeth and around veneer margins


• Consider using an alcohol-free mouthwash to help maintain gum health


• Wear a night guard if you grind or clench your teeth during sleep

Regular Professional Check-ups

We recommend:

• Attending routine dental examinations every 6 months


• Scheduling professional hygiene appointments to remove any stubborn stains or plaque


• Having your veneers polished annually to maintain their lustre

What to Avoid

To prevent damage to your porcelain veneers:

• Don't use your teeth as tools for opening packages or bottles


• Avoid biting directly into very hard foods like ice, nuts, or hard sweets


• Limit excessive alcohol consumption as it can weaken the bonding material over time


• Don't chew on pens, pencils, or fingernails which can chip veneers
