Dental veneers for Shaw
Veneers should look like beautiful natural teeth, not like veneers. Patients from Shaw choose us because they can see their new smile in wax first, and we only recommend veneers when they are genuinely the right choice.

Why Shaw patients choose us for dental veneers
Shaw and Crompton patients often tell us the drive is worth it for a practice where they feel genuinely looked after. Our dentists welcome people from Shaw for routine care, for cosmetic treatments like whitening and bonding, and for bigger plans such as implants and dentures.
Veneers are extremely thin porcelain coverings bonded onto the front surface of your teeth, a little like a false fingernail. They can be made for a single tooth that has darkened after root treatment, or for all the teeth that show when you smile.
Usually we create a wax model of your new teeth first, so you can see and approve the result before treatment starts. To help the veneer sit naturally under your lips, a minimal amount of the tooth surface is usually removed, with the area numbed using flavoured gels and local anaesthetic. You can listen to relaxing music during the procedure, and temporary coverings are fitted while our dental technician makes your porcelain veneers.

What happens
Three calm steps
Step 1: Design
We plan your smile and create a wax model so you can approve the look.
Step 2: Prepare
We gently prepare the tooth surface and fit temporary veneers.
Step 3: Bond
Your porcelain veneers are bonded in place and polished.
Looking after veneers
Modern bonding is very strong, but it is worth taking care when biting into anything very hard (a peach stone or a bone, for example) or very sticky foods that might pull on a veneer.
