What to Expect During Porcelain Veneers
A step-by-step walk-through of porcelain veneers, from your first consultation to the end of the appointment.
If porcelain veneers has been recommended for you, knowing what happens can ease any nerves. Thin shells bonded to the front of teeth to correct shape, colour, chips and small gaps.
Your visit begins with a consultation. We review your medical history, examine the area and, where helpful, take digital images so we can explain exactly what we are seeing.
The treatment itself typically takes around two to three visits. We use gentle techniques and effective local anaesthetic where needed, and we will check in with you throughout to make sure you are comfortable.
Afterwards we give you clear, written aftercare advice and arrange any follow-up that is required. If you are an anxious patient, let us know in advance — we offer extra time and a calm, judgement-free approach.
