Porcelain Veneers Cronulla

Porcelain veneers are a wafer-thin, ultra-durable shell of porcelain that is affixed to your tooth. An expert cosmetic dentist, Dr Daley works with specialised technicians who hand-craft your veneers to give your smile a natural-looking boost. 

Dr Daley specially prepares your tooth surface to ensure the porcelain veneers fit properly and adhere firmly.

Some people feel nervous about this part of the process. But there’s no need to worry. Your team are there to keep you relaxed and happy throughout. 

And you can choose IV sedation for total relaxation. 

When you're ready, the veneers are securely and permanently fastened onto your natural teeth. So you can speak, eat, drink and laugh like before - but now with the lovely smile you deserve. 

Porcelain veneers can last a very long time, 15 - 20 years or even a lifetime with proper care. Caring for your teeth veneers is the same as caring for your natural teeth. That means daily brushing and flossing, and regular check-up and clean visits to the dentist. 

Dr Daley uses premium material for porcelain veneers so your final result is natural-looking and extremely durable. So you can eat whatever you want without stressing about chipping your veneers. Of course, you shouldn’t chomp down onto hard olive pits or similar. But you avoid those with your natural teeth too.  

Dr Daley uses Australian-made veneers, hand-crafted by experienced local dental technicians, so you know you’re getting high-quality, veneers custom-made just for you.

The good news is porcelain veneers can correct many different concerns you might have with your teeth. That includes slightly crooked teeth, spaces, odd-shaped teeth and discolouration or staining. And porcelain veneers can be combined with Invisalign, dental crowns or other dental treatments to create the glamorous smile of your dreams. 

Dr Daley will be able to tell you straight away whether veneers are the best treatment for you.

In the very rare case porcelain veneers won't work for you, Dr Daley will talk to you about other options.

Porcelain veneers are a safe, proven and effective way to achieve a beautiful, bright and straight smile. 

However, it is true that prepping your teeth for veneers is permanent. This does not really 'ruin' your teeth. Your tooth root stays vibrant and healthy in your gum. But it does involve gently reshaping the crown part of your natural tooth. 

This allows your cosmetic dentist to create the perfect tooth-shape for your smile. 

The short answer is: almost never! This is the beauty of porcelain. Although it looks just like natural tooth enamel, it is actually much more stain-resistant. You can eat practically anything without staining porcelain veneers. And that means your smile will stay bright and brilliant well into the future. 

Of course, you do need to take care of your tooth veneers just as you would your teeth. As you’ll hear your dentist say time and time again - that means daily brushing and flossing. And don’t skip your half-yearly check-up and clean.

Like everything in life, the different kinds of veneers have their pros and cons. Composite veneers are cheaper, but they have a shorter lifetime, they don’t look as natural. They also stain more easily than porcelain (which is virtually stain resistant). 

Composite veneers attach to your existing tooth without as much reshaping as porcelain veneers. On the bright side, the costs are much lower. And finally, composite veneers can be ready on the spot.

The 'con' of porcelain veneers is definitely the cost. There's no avoiding it: porcelain veneers prices are higher than composites. But you can pay for them in manageable installments with flexible finance options. Porcelain veneers do cost more to start with. But on the other hand, you don’t need to keep paying to replace them like you do with composites. And that’s because porcelain can last many years, or even a lifetime with proper care.

You may feel worried about the process of tooth prep for porcelain veneers. But Dr Daley will make absolutely sure you are perfectly comfortable. And for extra-nervous patients, IV sedation is available so you can sleep right through treatment and wake up to your dream result. 

Finally, the biggest 'pro' of porcelain is that it looks great. It has the pearly lustre of healthy natural teeth. And your cosmetic dentist can perfectly adjust the shade to suit your smile and complexion. Dr Daley has advanced training and extensive experience in porcelain veneers. That means you don’t have to worry about looking fake or ‘overdone’. You’ll get the smile you want, and you’ll feel confident and informed every step of the way.
