Dental veneers are ultra-thin shells of porcelain or composite resin, custom-made to fit over the front surface of your teeth. They are one of the most effective cosmetic treatments available for patients who want to make a significant, lasting improvement to the appearance of their smile — correcting everything from discolouration and chips to gaps, uneven sizing, and misshapen teeth in just one or two appointments.

What To Expect From Dental Veneers Treatment

Your treatment begins with a consultation where we discuss your goals and assess your smile. We’ll carefully plan the shape, shade, and overall look of your veneers to ensure they complement your facial features and deliver the natural, balanced result you’re looking for.

A small amount of enamel may be gently smoothed from the front of the teeth to allow for a precise fit, before detailed impressions are taken. Once your custom veneers are ready, they are expertly bonded into place to create a brighter, more even smile. The result is a natural-looking transformation that feels comfortable and looks beautifully refined.

After treatment, your teeth will appear whiter, smoother, and more balanced, with improved alignment and shape. Whether you’re preparing for a big event or simply want to restore your smile to its youthful best, veneers at Viva Dental in Lancaster offer a fast and effective solution.

FAQ's

What are dental veneers?

A cosmetic tooth veneer is a facing (laminate) on the front of your teeth typically your top teeth. It is precision-made by skilled dental technicians to exactly mimic natural teeth. Dental veneers are made out of a high-strength porcelain and are used mainly for aesthetic reasons.
How do you prepare teeth to have dental veneers fitted?

A small amount of enamel may need to be removed from the front surface of the teeth to prepare for the veneers. This will be carried out under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout. After your teeth have been prepared, impressions are taken and sent to the dental laboratory, where the veneers will be custom-made to fit each individual tooth. In the meantime, temporary veneers may be placed to protect the prepared teeth. Once the permanent veneers are ready, they are bonded to the teeth using a special dental adhesive.
How long does it take to get used to dental veneers?

Generally, it takes a few days to a week for patients to adjust to the feeling of having veneers in their mouth.
Will I ever need to get my dental veneers replaced?

Veneers can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years before they may need to be replaced. However, with proper care and maintenance, they can potentially last even longer. Regular dental visits and following your dentist’s instructions for oral hygiene can help extend the lifespan of your veneers.
Is it painful having dental veneers fitted?

Before the actual placement, the dentist will numb the area with a local anesthetic to ensure you won’t feel any discomfort or pain during the procedure.
Can anyone have dental veneers fitted?

Your teeth will be evaluated by our dentist to determine if you’re a good candidate for this procedure. Factors such as your overall oral health, tooth structure, and alignment will be taken into consideration. Individuals who grind their teeth may not be ideal candidates for veneers.

Fantastic

“I had an accident at work with a coffee table and ended up damaging 3 of my front teeth. I was able to be seen the same day at Viva dental and given a thorough examination. They were absolutely fantastic and really put my mind to rest. I have been back for a further visit since my initial visit and I’m glad to say that you really can’t tell that there has been any damage to my teeth. I can’t sing the praises of Dr Sabeti high enough. Thank you.”
