Transform Your Smile with Natural-Looking,
Long-Lasting Veneers

What Are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are ultra-thin shells made from high-quality porcelain or composite resin. These shells are bonded to the front of your natural teeth to cover imperfections and create a uniform, symmetrical look. Veneers are custom-designed to match your facial features, tooth shade, and bite, ensuring a natural and long-lasting result. Our custom-made dental veneers offer a fast, effective way to improve the shape, colour, and overall appearance of your teeth.

Dr. Wong and Dr. Hoeschen are both pursuing accreditation with the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD), a distinction earned by only a select few dentists in Canada. Their commitment to excellence means you’ll receive stunning results, with proper care and a strong focus on preserving your natural tooth structure.

Dental Veneers FAQs

How long do dental veneers last?

Dental veneers typically last between 10 to 15 years with proper care. Porcelain veneers are especially durable and resistant to staining. Maintaining good oral hygiene and visiting your dentist regularly will help extend their lifespan.

Are veneers permanent?

Yes, dental veneers are considered a permanent cosmetic treatment because a thin layer of enamel is removed during preparation. While the veneers themselves may eventually need replacing, the process is not reversible.

What happens to teeth under veneers?

The natural teeth under veneers remain protected but slightly altered. A small amount of enamel is removed during preparation to make room for the veneer. This helps the veneer bond securely and look natural. Once placed, the veneer acts like a shield, protecting the tooth surface. However, it’s important to maintain excellent oral hygiene, as the tooth underneath can still develop decay or gum issues if not properly cared for.

Who is a good candidate for dental veneers?

You may be a great candidate if you have chipped, stained, worn, uneven, or slightly misaligned teeth and are in overall good oral health. Our dentists will assess your teeth and gums during your consultation to determine if veneers are the right option for you.

Are dental veneers a good idea?

Dental veneers can be an excellent option for improving your smile if you’re looking to correct cosmetic concerns like discolouration, gaps, chips, or uneven teeth. They offer long-lasting results, require minimal tooth alteration compared to crowns, and are stain-resistant. However, they’re best suited for patients with healthy teeth and gums.

During your consultation at Pretoria Bridge Dental, we’ll assess your needs and help you determine if veneers are the right solution for your smile goals.
