What are Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are custom-made, wafer-thin shells of tooth-coloured porcelain that are bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. These durable ceramic overlays effectively conceal various cosmetic imperfections including stains, chips, cracks, gaps, and minor misalignments. Unlike composite resin alternatives, porcelain veneers resist staining, reflect light similarly to natural teeth, and typically last 10-15 years with proper care. The procedure usually requires removing a small amount of tooth enamel to ensure proper fit, making this a permanent cosmetic dental solution that provides immediate aesthetic improvement while maintaining a natural appearance.

Step 3

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



Immediate Results



You'll be able to see your transformed smile immediately after the procedure. Our patients often express amazement at the instant improvement in their appearance.



Aftercare Instructions



Before you leave, we'll provide comprehensive aftercare instructions, including:




  • How to care for your new veneers in the first few days

  • Long-term maintenance tips to ensure the longevity of your veneers

  • Advice on foods and drinks to avoid initially

Step 4

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



When to Contact Us



Reach out to London Dental Specialists immediately if you experience:




  • Persistent pain or sensitivity that doesn't subside

  • A veneer that feels loose or has detached

  • Chips, cracks, or other damage to your veneers

  • Changes in your bite alignment



With proper care and regular maintenance, your porcelain veneers can provide a beautiful, natural-looking smile for many years. Our team at London Dental Specialists remains available to address any concerns and provide ongoing support throughout your veneer journey.

Conditions We Treat With Porcelain Veneers

We use Porcelain Veneers to treat various dental conditions at our Lower Clapton practice, focusing on conditions that benefit well to this treatment. Our qualified team establishes which conditions are most appropriate for Porcelain Veneers. We provide honest guidance about expected outcomes for your specific condition.


  • Stained Teeth - Porcelain veneers provide an excellent solution for teeth with persistent discolouration that doesn't respond to whitening treatments. These tooth-coloured shells effectively cover stains caused by medications, excessive fluoride, or lifestyle habits.

  • Chipped Teeth - Custom-made porcelain veneers can perfectly restore the appearance of chipped teeth, creating a seamless, natural-looking smile makeover without the need for more invasive procedures.

  • Cracked Teeth - Minor cracks in the dental enamel can be effectively concealed with veneers, improving both dental aesthetics and protecting the tooth from further damage.

  • Gaps Between Teeth - Porcelain veneers can close small gaps between teeth, providing an alternative to orthodontic treatment for certain cosmetic spacing issues.

  • Misaligned Teeth - For teeth that are slightly crooked or misaligned, veneers can create the appearance of proper alignment without the need for braces in suitable cases.

  • Worn Down Teeth - Teeth that have become shorter due to grinding or general wear can be restored to their proper length and shape with custom-designed porcelain veneers.

  • Misshapen Teeth - Teeth that are irregularly shaped or have developmental abnormalities can be transformed with veneers to create a more uniform, aesthetically pleasing smile.

  • Uneven Teeth - Veneers can correct teeth of different sizes or lengths, creating a more balanced and harmonious smile line.
