Dental veneers at our
practice in Dudley
Are you unhappy with the way your teeth look? Do you have teeth that are discoloured, chipped or crooked?
Although the teeth may be healthy, we recognise that their appearance can leave you feeling self-conscious. By adding veneers, our dentists can help to improve your smile and your confidence.
A dental veneer is a thin layer of tooth-coloured material – usually porcelain – which is attached to the damaged or discoloured tooth. Once fitted, it will look just as natural as your other teeth.
Fitting dental veneers
Applying veneers is a relatively simple procedure. Our dentists will remove a tiny amount of the tooth’s surface, so when fitted the veneer doesn’t feel bulky.
After this, our dentists will take an impression that will match the size and shape of the rest of your teeth. Porcelain veneers are fitted using special glue, typically on your second visit.

Veneers can also be made from the same material that makes white fillings. Your dentist will simply apply a small amount of acid to your tooth to make it a rougher surface and then gradually add layers of filling material to get the right look for you.
