Porcelain Veneers
Do you want to transform your smile and boost your confidence? Consider porcelain veneers. Porcelain veneers are a popular cosmetic dental procedure that can help improve the appearance of your teeth. These thin, custom-made shells are designed to fit over the front surface of your teeth, covering imperfections such as chips, cracks, stains, and gaps. The benefits of porcelain veneers are numerous. They can improve your teeth’ colour, shape, and size, creating a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing smile. They are also stain-resistant and easy to maintain, making them a convenient and cost-effective option for those looking to enhance their smile.

Frequently Asked Questions on Cosmetic Dentistry:
What is cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving the look of your teeth and smile—colour, shape, spacing, alignment, and symmetry—while still supporting healthy function.What procedures fall under cosmetic dentistry?
Common treatments include teeth whitening, veneers, composite bonding, gum contouring, tooth reshaping, and sometimes clear aligners for cosmetic straightening.What’s the difference between cosmetic dentistry and restorative dentistry?
Restorative dentistry repairs damage (decay, cracks, missing teeth). Cosmetic dentistry is mainly about appearance—though some treatments (like crowns or bonding) can do both.Which is better: veneers or bonding?
Bonding is more conservative and often faster for small chips or gaps. Veneers are typically more stain-resistant and can create a bigger transformation, especially for multiple front teeth.How long do cosmetic dental results last?
It depends on the treatment and habits. Whitening may need touch-ups, bonding can stain or wear, and veneers/crowns can last many years with good hygiene and regular checkups.Does cosmetic dentistry hurt?
Most cosmetic procedures are minimally invasive. Whitening may cause temporary sensitivity, and veneers/crowns may require tooth preparation (usually with freezing for comfort).How much does cosmetic dentistry cost in Canada?
Cost depends on the service, number of teeth, materials, and complexity. A consultation is the best way to get a clear, personalized estimate.Is cosmetic dentistry covered by insurance?
Many cosmetic procedures (like whitening) aren’t covered. Some treatments may have partial coverage if they’re also restorative (e.g., bonding after a fracture or a crown for a damaged tooth). Coverage varies by plan.Can I get cosmetic dentistry if I have cavities or gum disease?
Usually, underlying issues should be treated first. Healthy gums and stable teeth create better, longer-lasting cosmetic results.How do I choose the right cosmetic treatment for my smile goals?
Start with a cosmetic consultation. Your dentist will assess your teeth, bite, and budget, then recommend the best path—often comparing whitening vs bonding vs veneers vs aligners based on your goals and timeline.
