Dental Veneers in Midland

A smooth, natural-looking way to enhance your smile

Dental veneers are a popular and effective option for improving the appearance of front teeth that may be chipped, uneven, discoloured, or slightly misaligned. 

At Helena Street Dental in Midland, we use high-quality porcelain veneers that are custom-made to fit precisely and blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

What are dental veneers?

A dental veneer is a thin, custom-made shell that is bonded to the front surface of a tooth to improve its appearance. 

Unlike a crown, which covers the entire tooth, a veneer only covers the visible front section — allowing for a more conservative approach to treatment.

Porcelain veneers are known for their durability, stain resistance, and natural translucency, which closely mimics the appearance of real enamel.

When are veneers recommended?

Veneers may be suitable for improving the appearance of teeth that are:

Chipped or worn
Slightly uneven or irregularly shaped
Permanently discoloured or stained
Mildly misaligned
Spaced unevenly or have small gaps

Your dentist will assess your teeth and discuss whether veneers are the most suitable treatment option based on your needs, enamel thickness, and overall oral health.

What is the process for getting veneers?

The process for veneers usually involves two appointments:

First appointment: 
The tooth surface is gently prepared by removing a very small amount of enamel — just enough to ensure the veneer fits flush and looks natural. Detailed impressions are then taken and sent to a dental laboratory, where your custom veneers are carefully crafted. 
Temporary veneers may be fitted during this stage if required.
Second appointment: 
Once your veneers are ready, your dentist will check their fit, shape, and shade before bonding them securely in place. Minor adjustments may be made to ensure comfort and a smooth, even result.

The finished veneers are designed to blend naturally with your smile for a balanced and consistent appearance.

How long do veneers last?

With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, porcelain veneers can last for many years. 

To maintain their condition, it’s important to brush and floss daily, avoid biting hard objects (like pens or ice), and schedule regular professional cleans. 

If a veneer is ever damaged or loosened, it can usually be repaired or replaced individually.

Caring for your veneers

Veneers don’t require special maintenance — simply care for them as you would your natural teeth. 

We recommend using a soft toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste to avoid scratching the surface. Limiting strong-coloured foods and drinks can also help reduce surface staining over time.
