Porcelain Veneers Melbourne

Ceramic/Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made ceramic shells used to cover the front surface of a tooth. They improve the colour, shape and overall appearance. Porcelain veneers are durable and create a very natural aesthetic.

Reasons for needing porcelain veneers
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Discoloured teeth
  • Chipped or hairline fractured teeth
  • Root canal treated front teeth
  • Poorly shaped or crooked front teeth

There is more time involved with preparing the porcelain veneers. Preparation of the tooth is minimal however, to make the porcelain veneers, impressions need to be sent to the dental laboratory, which is about a 2-week processing time.

When the veneers are returned, they are checked in the mouth for fit and colour before being cemented in place permanently.

What Determines the Cost of Veneers in Melbourne?

The cost of veneers in Melbourne depends on several factors, including the type of veneers (porcelain or composite), the number of teeth being treated, and the complexity of the procedure. Additional treatments like teeth whitening or reshaping can also affect the price. The experience of the dentist, location of the clinic, and quality of materials used all play a role in the final cost. For an accurate quote, it’s best to consult a Melbourne-based cosmetic dentist.

Bonded Veneers

Bonded veneers are a cost-effective way of altering the tooth’s front surface, whether it is to change the colour/ shape or both. Bonded veneers are made using composite resin, the same tooth coloured material used for fillings. Usually, one visit is needed for this procedure after the initial consult, and you can instantly walk out with a new smile.

Reasons for needing veneers
  • Gaps in between teeth
  • Stained or mildly discoloured teeth
  • Small chips on the tooth surface
While saving on cost and time, there are some disadvantages to having bonded veneers as opposed to porcelain veneers.
  • The resin can wear and chip over time
  • The resin can be prone to staining over time
  • If the tooth is very discoloured underneath, it can be very difficult to get the correct colour to match the adjacent teeth.
