Why choose veneers?
Many people feel self-conscious about their smile for all sorts of reasons. You might feel hesitant to show your teeth in photos, or find yourself covering your mouth when you laugh. It’s completely natural to feel this way, especially if your teeth have minor imperfections that catch your eye every time you look in the mirror.
Whether it’s due to chips, stains, small gaps or uneven tooth shapes, these little things can sometimes have a big impact on how you feel about yourself. Over time, they can affect your confidence and how freely you smile around others.
Our dental veneers can help improve the appearance of your teeth and give you a smile that feels more like you. They can be used to address common concerns such as:
- Discoloured or stained teeth
- Chipped or worn teeth
- Small gaps between teeth
- Irregular or uneven tooth shapes
If discolouration is your main concern, we also offer professional teeth whitening as another effective option. With veneers, you can enjoy a brighter, more balanced smile. You’ll also feel more confident about showing your teeth when you laugh or talk.

What are dental veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, tooth-coloured shells that are carefully bonded to the front of your teeth. They improve the appearance of your smile by masking imperfections and creating a more uniform look. At Gisborne Family Dental, we offer two types of veneers:
Porcelain veneers
These are crafted from high-quality ceramic and are known for their strength, durability and natural appearance. Porcelain veneers are a great option if you want a long-lasting solution to enhance your smile. Porcelain veneers generally take 2-3 weeks to be made in a dental lab before application.
Composite veneers
These are made from composite resin, applied directly to your teeth in the clinic. Composite veneers can usually be completed in one visit and are an ideal choice for minor cosmetic improvements.
Our experienced dentists will help you choose the right option based on your needs, goals and preferences.
How do dental veneers work?
Our veneer process is designed to be straightforward, comfortable and tailored to you. Here’s what you can expect:
Personalised consultation
We start with a detailed consultation to understand your smile goals and assess whether veneers are suitable for you. We’ll take the time to listen and answer any questions you may have.
Smile design and planning
Using photos and digital scans, we’ll carefully plan the size, shape and colour of your veneers to complement your natural smile and facial features.
Tooth preparation
For porcelain veneers, a small amount of enamel may be gently removed to ensure a perfect fit. Composite veneers usually require little to no tooth preparation.
Veneer placement
- Composite veneers: These are built up and shaped directly on your teeth during your appointment.
- Porcelain veneers: These are custom-made in a dental laboratory and carefully bonded to your teeth once ready.
If your teeth are too damaged for veneers, we may discuss alternative options such as dental crowns and bridges to restore your smile.
Review and care
We’ll arrange a follow-up appointment to make sure you’re happy with your new smile and provide you with personalised advice on how to care for your veneers.
