Dental Veneers

By replacing the outer layer for the front of your teeth veneers can completely alter the appearance of your smile. Veneers provide a way to enhance stained, chipped, misaligned or discoloured teeth.

With over 30 years experience helping hundreds of patients rejuvenate their smile with porcelain veneers, Dr Kamal Raj and the team at Verve Dental are available for consultation when you are ready to see what is possible to get the smile you want.

Many factors go into determining the cost of placing porcelain veneers to improve your smile. For example, are the teeth the veneers will be placed on strong and healthy? How straight are the teeth?  Are the gums well maintained? Do we need to alter the length of the teeth? How much colour change are you after. How many teeth will need to be veneered? Plus many more questions that need to be answered.

With this in mind, the cost of veneering teeth can vary from $1500 to $2000 per tooth.To determine the cost, we will during your initial examination with Dr Kamal Raj determine what exactly you are after and how best it can be achieved. This process takes  time and we never rush patients into making decisions which they will ultimately will have to live with for the rest of their lives.

This is a question we are asked often.  It is only after we complete a comprehensive examination of your entire mouth can we advise if porcelain veneers are suitable for you.  We achieve this by examining your entire mouth, making models of your teeth and gums and taking extensive photos of your smile.

Sometimes, people assume that because their front teeth look bad, just fixing those alone will solve everything. In reality, the appearance of the front teeth is often the result of what is happening all over their mouth. From breakdown of back teeth to unchecked gum disease.

Once an examination is completed, we then listen carefully as to what it is you wish to achieve for your smile. Then, we can determine if porcelain veneers are the best to help you achieve this.

Once we start down the road of changing your smile, we spend time recreating your design on models to show you what is possible. In addition, we recreate a digital simulation with before and after pictures for your thoughts.This all before we even start working on your teeth.Once you approve of the "prototype" we then prepare your teeth and place a trial smile directly on your teeth them to see how it suits you. Sometimes, the trial smile can be placed before your teeth are prepared to speed up the process of giving you an idea of how things will change.

On average, veneers last 10-15 years. However, like everything if they are well maintained and looked after They can last as long as 20 years.Regular examinations of your veneers is important as decay, chips and loosening can occur and often go unnoticed.
