Hi, I’m Dr Michael Cai, the principal dentist of Pitt St Dental Centre here in Sydney CBD.
Yesterday, I had one of my friends, Stewart, from high school visit our clinic. He moved to North Sydney a few weeks ago, and is looking for a new dentist to take care of him. He was recently promoted to a senior management role, and as part of his role, he needs to be in front of the camera for social media. He told me he is not that comfortable with his smile, especially in front of the camera. He said it makes him cringe every time he sees himself!
Secondly, dental veneers, whether it is porcelain veneers or composite bonding, can fix colour issues, especially intrinsic discolouration where teeth whitening can not achieve the shades and brilliance that you want.
Finally, dental veneers can fix teeth size problems. We can increase the size or decrease the size of the smile display. Sometimes we will also reshape the gums simultaneously if the patient has a gummy smile. This will ensure the size of the teeth is in harmony with the overall facial features. This proportional harmony can make a big difference to the overall smile.
The materials we use to make dental veneers nowadays are similar to the strength of enamel. So for a tooth that’s moderately damaged, you will strengthen the teeth as well.
Now, to do a smile makeover with veneers, you must have good oral hygiene and healthy gums.
I hope this gives you a better understanding of some of the problems dental veneers can fix.
So if you have been thinking about upgrading your smile, and want to work with someone who is also trusted by well-known Australian TV and Sports personalities, we would love to look after you.
