What is a Dental Veneer?
Dental veneers are thin, durable porcelain shells that are custom-made in a laboratory to match the colour, shape, and size of your natural teeth. They are designed to look natural while enhancing the overall appearance of your smile.
At Centre Dentaire St-Luc, our dentists use veneers to enhance the appearance of your smile by improving shade, shape, and overall symmetry.
Each veneer is carefully bonded to the front surface of the tooth, helping to correct imperfections such as discolouration, minor chips, gaps, or uneven teeth for a more confident, balanced smile.
Lumineers®
Centre Dentaire St-Luc offers Lumineers, thin veneers that can be applied with minimal or no tooth preparation, giving you a beautiful smile with less hassle.
How Veneers Work
Your dentist will take an impression of your teeth to design custom veneers. Once ready, the veneers will be bonded to the front of your natural teeth.
The veneers are thin shells of porcelain, a material that imitates the translucency of enamel and produces a very natural result, both to the touch and in your smile's appearance.
Features of Veneers
If you wish to improve the shape of your teeth or the appearance of your smile, veneers are a more conservative option than crowns.
They can correct the appearance of stained or damaged teeth, reduce gaps between teeth, or adjust their size. When properly cared for, veneers can remain in excellent condition for many years.
