What are dental veneers and how do they work?

This veneers guide from Signature Dentistry in Toorak explains how thin porcelain shells are bonded to the front of teeth to correct chips, stains, gaps and misalignment. Dr Kasen Somana uses minimal-preparation techniques. Veneers cost $1,999-$2,499 each and last 15-20 years.

FAQ

Porcelain veneers ($1,999-$2,499 each) last 15-20 years and resist staining. Composite veneers cost less but last 5-7 years and may discolour over time. Dr Kasen Somana at Signature Dentistry can advise which type suits your needs.

Porcelain veneers are considered a permanent treatment as a thin layer of tooth enamel is removed during preparation. However, Dr Kasen Somana uses minimal-preparation techniques at Signature Dentistry to preserve as much natural tooth as possible.

Care for veneers as you would natural teeth: brush twice daily, floss daily and visit Signature Dentistry for regular check-ups. Avoid biting hard objects, use a night guard if you grind your teeth, and minimise staining foods with composite veneers.
