5 things you must know before getting dental veneers done
Like most things, the old adage ‘do it once, do it right’, rings true when it comes to dental treatment.
Re-doing things can be costly and also time-consuming. A famous face who recently re-did his veneers is Simon Powell, the judge from America’s Got Talent. He had a blisteringly white set of veneers done, but recently had them changed to a slightly less luminescent shade. Read more here.
We would like to share some of our 5 top tips to avoid having to be in the same position as Simon.
- Colour matters! Once the colour of your veneers have been chosen, this cannot be changed, so it’s crucially important that you are happy with the colour. We don’t recommend getting a blindingly white shade as this can often make the veneers look ‘fake’. The best way of gauging the best shade is to look at the whites of your eyes. The other important thing to remember is that as we age our teeth tend to get darker. So depending on your age, this should be taken into consideration. Our Claremont dentists believe natural is best, so discussion about the colour of the veneers with our patients is very important.
- Your face matters! It’s crucially important that your facial features are taken into account when designing your veneers. The shape of teeth varies depending on your age, sex and facial features. We believe it’s crucially important to consider your face and features when designing a new smile and will discuss recommendations with you.
- Trying things out matters! Here at Dental Quarters, our Claremont dentists have been trained in Digital Smile Design. This is a revolutionary new technology which allows you to ‘try out’ your smile before going ahead with it. This helps you to visualise the end result and also give feedback and input to any changes for your new smile. Find out more about Digital Smile Design here.
- Taking time to get things perfect matters! We don’t like to have deadlines when it comes to getting things right. It takes time and careful planning to ensure a good result, and we are happy to invest our time into making sure the end result is perfect.
- Being 100% satisfied matters! At our Claremont cosmetic dental clinic, our team believe in being meticulous and paying attention to the small details. We believe this helps to guarantee success and satisfaction of our clients.
