Porcelain Veneers

At Gibside Dental, we know that every smile is unique.

Veneers aren’t about creating a generic, perfect look—they’re about enhancing what makes your smile yours. From subtle refinements to a more dramatic transformation, we work with you to choose the shade, shape and finish that feels right, so your new smile always looks natural.

Your treatment will be a ‘fit for you’ treatment that meets your unique expectations and needs. This means you’ll be left with a result that suits your facial anatomy and smile, and that makes you feel confident.

What are veneers?

Porcelain veneers are thin, hand-crafted shells bonded to the front of teeth. Made by technicians who are true masters of their craft, veneers can brighten your smile, adjust the shape of teeth, close small gaps, or make minor alignment changes—all without losing the character of your natural teeth.

Veneers can help if you want to:

• Refresh the colour of your teeth.
• Adjust the shape or length.
• Close small gaps or correct minor crowding.
• Give your smile a more balanced, harmonious look.

Your treatment journey

• Step 1 – Consultation and smile design: We talk about your goals and show you options, using digital images to give a realistic preview.
  
• Step 2 – Tooth preparation: A small amount of enamel may be adjusted to make space for the veneers, though in some cases, minimal or no preparation is needed. We then use temporary veneers so you can test run your new smile before the permanents are added.
  
• Step 3 – Crafting your veneers: Each veneer is made by skilled technicians using high-quality porcelain, shaped and coloured to match the plan we agreed with you.
  
• Step 4 – Fitting: We bond the veneers in place, fine-tuning the fit so they feel comfortable and look seamless with your natural teeth.
