What are Porcelain Veneers

Teeth can appear discoloured, stained, misaligned, misshapen, or chipped due to various factors such as dental trauma, aging, certain medications, or habits like smoking. Porcelain dental veneers offer an ideal solution to address these issues, providing a brighter, more uniform smile. We customise each veneer to match the shape of your other teeth while improving the appearance of the tooth it is placed on, ensuring a natural-looking finish.

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin layers of porcelain permanently bonded to your front surface of tooth enamel for a long-lasting, stunning smile. You can choose for one to ten veneers – depending on your case and aesthetic goals. Porcelain veneers are the preferred choice for most patients because they look natural, are less prone to staining than composite alternatives, and are highly durable.

Porcelain Veneers Process

During your initial consultation, our dentist will thoroughly examine your teeth, discuss your concerns smile goals. You will be advised if porcelain veneers are suitable. If you are, we will thoroughly walk you through the process, things to consider before getting dental veneers and your payment options.
Should you decide to go ahead with porcelain veneers treatment, we will then design your smile digitally to show you the end result of how it will appear. After you are happy with it, we will prep your tooth. This involves shaving off a small layer of top enamel to accommodate your veneers.
While we are readying your custom final veneers, you will be fitted with temporary veneers to protect your prepped tooth.
Once your custom veneers are ready, we will remove the temporary veneers and bond the porcelain veneers permanently to your teeth using a bio-friendly adhesive. This will be followed by making any adjustments as necessary to ensure the end result is natural-looking, beautiful smile that you are proud to show off.

Benefits of Porcelain Veneers

Longevity

Unlike other cosmetic dental treatments such as composite veneers, porcelain veneers are durable, stain-resistant, and have a longer lifespan. With proper care, they can last for up to 15 years. They could be an excellent long-term investment in your smile.

Stain Resistance

Due to their nature, porcelain veneers are stain resistant. With our high-quality porcelain veneers, you do not have to worry about discolouration while enjoying your tea, coffee, or any other food and beverages that often cause teeth staining.

Easy to Maintain

Once applied, porcelain veneers are easy to maintain with a good oral health routine. The care instructions are the same as for your natural teeth: daily brushing, flossing, and regular dental appointments as instructed by your dentist.

Instant Smile Enhancement

Porcelain -looking, beautiful teeth that match your teeth’s colour, shape, and facial proportions.

Minimally Invasive

Only a thin top layer of enamel is removed to fit porcelain veneers. The shaved tooth will be covered with porcelain veneers, so you won’t feel any sensitivity or discomfort.

Tooth Bonding

Tooth bonding, also known as adhesive dentistry, is a cosmetic dental procedure aimed at correcting minor issues such as chips, cracks, discolouration, or small gaps between teeth. It is a minimally invasive and easily reversible process that can typically be completed in a single dental appointment.

Depending on your dental concerns and oral health situation, we may present options including composite bonding and porcelain veneers, providing comprehensive details on their treatment processes, advantages, and factors to consider. Our aim is to ensure you’re well-informed to make the right choice for your dental needs.

Tooth Bonding Process

We meticulously match the shade of the composite resin to your natural tooth and surrounding teeth, ensuring seamless blending for a harmonious smile.
The tooth’s surface is gently roughened to support adhesion. Then, the composite resin is carefully applied to the prepared surface.
Our skilled dentists shape the applied composite to achieve the desired form. Using a specialised UV light, the resin is cured to harden and bond with your natural tooth. Finally, it is shaped and polished to achieve the desired end result in terms of both shape and size.

Benefits of Composite Bonding

Budget Friendly Option

Composite bonding serves as a more economical alternative to porcelain veneers for minor cosmetic dental enhancements. However, it's important to note that while it may be more affordable, composite resins are susceptible to staining and chipping and generally require more frequent maintenance compared to porcelain veneers.

Quick Process

Composite bonding can typically be completed in a single visit, offering a swift and virtually painless process. Leveraging our advanced technology, we can help you achieve a naturally beautiful smile in no time and with minimal discomfort.

Reversible

Unlike crowns and porcelain veneers, composite bonding allows for reversibility since minimal natural tooth structure is removed during the procedure and the applied composite resin can easily be taken off by a dentist.

Minimally Invasive

The preparation for composite bonding entails minimal removal of tooth enamel, ensuring the preservation of your natural tooth structure.

Versatility

Composite bonding is a versatile solution capable of addressing various minor dental concerns including small gaps between teeth, chipped or cracked teeth, uneven teeth, stained teeth, and more.

Same-Day Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are incredibly versatile. They not only protect your natural teeth but also address cosmetic issues like gaps, mismatched shapes or sizes, and restore worn, broken, or chipped teeth. They are designed to cover the entire tooth surface like a cap, which is why they are also commonly referred to as ‘dental caps’.

At Sparkling White Dental, we prioritise your time and convenience. That’s why we use the CEREC machine to provide same-day dental crowns in just one visit within a couple of hours. Say goodbye to the gooey impression technique that often triggers gag reflexes and multiple appointments. Instead, enjoy a high-quality crown custom-made during your appointment. We are confident in our work and offer an 18-month replacement guarantee.

Same-Day Dental Crowns Process

Assessment

Our dentist will examine your teeth, discuss your oral health and aesthetic concerns, and determine if a crown is the right option for you. You'll receive detailed information about the procedure, costs, and everything else you need to know before getting a dental crown.

Prepping and Digital Impressions

If you choose to proceed with the dental crown treatment, your tooth will be prepared by removing a small amount of enamel to ensure a snug fit for the new crown. We use a digital scanner to take precise impressions, eliminating the need for traditional impression moulds. We will also select the most suitable tooth shade to match your adjacent teeth for a seamless natural appearance.

Manufacturing and Placement

The digital impressions are sent to our CEREC machine, which custom manufactures your dental crown on the spot. The crown is then securely bonded to your tooth, providing a protective cap. After the procedure, we will guide you on how to care for your crown to ensure it lasts 10 to 15 years or more.

Teeth Straightening

At Sparkling White Dental, we offer a variety of teeth straightening and orthodontic treatments for both teens and adults. These treatments effectively address concerns such as crooked, misaligned or crowded teeth. Our principal dentist, Dr. Bik, is passionate about orthodontics and has successfully delivered hundreds of treatments throughout his 28-year dental career.
