How are they fitted onto my teeth?

Just like when you need to glue two surfaces together in your home, we roughen the bonding surface on your teeth to ensure that the glue that holds this thin shell in place is durable and long lasting.

We do this by removing a very thin layer of enamel from the front of the teeth to which we are applying the shells. There are some select cases that do not require your enamel to be removed. Speak to us to see whether we are able to accommodate you in this desire.

How long does the treatment take?

It usually takes two to three treatment sessions to completely revamp your smile. Initial consultations, sizing and placement planning is followed by preparation of the teeth and finally the fitting. We need to send away to have your veneers made so there is a short waiting period between planning and completion when we have the shells made.

There is potentially no need for the shells to wear out as the glue should be durable enough for a lifetime We have found that with adequate care, they will last for upwards of 10 years. General wear and tear do eventually break down the shells and then they are needing to be replaced.
