DENTAL VENEERS · CANBERRA
Considering dental veneers in Barton or Canberra’s Inner South? We welcome new patients from Deakin, Red Hill, Yarralumla and nearby suburbs to discuss smile goals, suitable alternatives and what treatment would mean for their natural teeth.
START WITH YOUR GOALS
Veneers are thin porcelain or composite resin covers attached to the front of teeth to change their appearance. They do not treat decay or correct bite problems.
Discuss your teeth, gums, bite and any grinding or clenching. Suitability and the proposed material depend on your assessment.

Some enamel may need to be removed to fit veneers. Ask exactly what preparation is proposed and whether this change is irreversible.
Sensitivity, cracking or loosening can occur. Veneer colour cannot be changed after placement, and surrounding teeth may change colour. Ask about the risks for your teeth and bite.
Continue brushing, flossing and regular dental reviews. Veneers may need repair or replacement over time. Ask for individual care instructions and future maintenance costs.
Aftercare and treatment questionsGeneral patient information: healthdirect — veneers. Your assessment and individual consent discussion determine your care.
