What are veneers in Cardiff?

Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are carefully bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. They are crafted from high-quality porcelain and designed to match the shape, size, and colour of your natural teeth, giving you a brighter, more even smile.

Veneers don’t just enhance aesthetics – they also add a protective layer to your teeth and help disguise common dental imperfections such as:

  • Chipped or worn teeth
  • Uneven or irregularly shaped teeth
  • Heavily stained or discoloured teeth
  • Slight misalignment
  • Small gaps between teeth

Veneers can be used to enhance a single tooth, a few teeth, or as part of a complete smile makeover, typically focusing on the teeth visible when you smile.

Patients throughout Llandaff and Cardiff choose porcelain veneers because they offer a fast, pain-free way to transform their smile with stunning, natural-looking results.

How do veneers work at Dental Lounge in Cardiff?

At Dental Lounge, we use a precise, patient-focused approach to ensure stunning, natural-looking results with porcelain veneers. Here’s what to expect:

Consultation

Your journey begins with a free consultation at our Cardiff practice. Your cosmetic dentist will assess your teeth and discuss the changes you’d like to achieve, whether it’s improving the colour, shape, or alignment of your smile.

Tooth Preparation

At your next appointment, we’ll prepare your teeth for veneers by gently removing a very thin layer of enamel – typically just 0.5 to 0.7mm. This ensures your veneers sit perfectly on the teeth and look completely natural.

Custom Design

Precise measurements and impressions are taken and sent to our trusted dental lab, where your bespoke porcelain veneers are crafted to match the desired size, shape, and shade.

Fitting Your Veneers

Once your veneers are ready, you’ll return to the practice to have them securely bonded to your teeth. The result is a beautifully enhanced smile that looks and feels completely natural.

Frequently Asked Questions about porcelain veneers

How do I care for my porcelain veneers?

Looking after your veneers is simple and similar to caring for natural teeth. To keep them looking their best:

  • Brush twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste
  • Floss daily to maintain healthy gums and prevent plaque build-up
  • Visit your dentist and hygienist regularly for check-ups and professional cleaning
  • Avoid biting hard objects like pen lids, ice, or fingernails, which could chip the veneers
  • Limit dark-coloured food and drinks such as coffee, red wine, and curry, which may cause staining over time
  • Stop smoking, as it can discolour both natural teeth and veneers

With proper care, your porcelain veneers can last 10–15 years or more.

Can anyone get veneers?

Most adults with healthy teeth and gums are suitable candidates for porcelain veneers. However, it’s important that your teeth have enough enamel to support the veneers, as a small amount is removed during the preparation process.

Your dentist will carry out a full assessment during your consultation to ensure veneers are the right option for you. If you have gum disease, tooth decay, or other underlying issues, these may need to be treated first.

Does it hurt to get porcelain veneers?

No – getting porcelain veneers is not painful. The procedure is minimally invasive, and most patients experience little to no discomfort. If you’re having veneers placed on multiple teeth, you may feel some temporary soreness or sensitivity afterwards, but this usually settles quickly.

Your dentist will ensure you’re as comfortable as possible throughout the process, and local anaesthetic can be used if needed.
