What are veneers?
Veneers are a popular form of cosmetic dentistry that essentially aims to improve the aesthetic appearance of a patient’s smile. Porcelain veneers are the type of veneers we offer our patients at our dental clinic, and could be argued as the most popular and effective option. Porcelain veneers are a great form of cosmetic dentistry for patients who do want to improve their smile, but do not want to undergo a major dental procedure. Porcelain veneers can be used to address many common dental issues and insecurities patients may be experiencing, such as staining or chipping of the teeth.
How do veneers in Ormskirk work?
In terms of the treatment process, porcelain veneers are wafer thin caps that are adhered to the surface of the teeth (using a special dental glue adhesive). Our dental team works with our patients to create custom made veneers that match their natural surrounding teeth. Veneers take a short while to adhere, however with the correct aftercare, they can last around ten to fifteen years, which can be perfect for individuals who are looking for a long term cosmetic option.
Are veneers in Ormskirk right for me?
If you are a patient who is suffering from extrinsic or intrinsic staining, (which can occur frequently from smoking, or the consumption of highly pigmented food and drink such as coffee and red wine), then porcelain veneers may be right for you. Aside from yellowing of the teeth, patients may also look to veneers to solve problems that orthodontics may not be able to fix, such as gaps between the teeth.
How expensive are veneers in Ormskirk?
Many of our patients may be considering this form of cosmetic dentistry, however they may not be aware of the exact pricing to expect from their chosen dental treatment. Much like any dental, restorative, or cosmetic dental treatment, the pricing varies greatly depending on the complexity of the individual case.
Do I have to pay for my veneers upfront?
Many of our patients may be considering receiving veneers as a form of cosmetic dentistry at our clinic, however they may be worried about the financial costs. Many dental clinics who offer private dental treatments may ask for their patients to pay for treatment at the start, however we strive to be different. Our dental clinic offers a wide array of dental payment plans, including child payment plans. Despite offering payment dental plans, we also offer interest free credit, meaning our patients can pay for their dental treatment with monthly instalments.
Do you only offer private dentistry?
No! We understand that all of our patients differ greatly in terms of their dental, and financial situations, this is why we strive to offer our patients a larger financial choice. Our clinic welcomes all patients, at whatever age, and in any financial position. In terms of our National Health Service fees, we offer all of our patients the opportunity to receive dental treatments under the National Health Service, offering our patients three bands of treatment.
