Dental Veneers

Dental Veneers in Bentleigh East

Dental veneers are a popular cosmetic dental treatment that can completely alter the appearance of your smile. They are thin shells of porcelain that are placed over the front surface of your teeth to enhance their appearance. Veneers are an effective solution for people who have stained, chipped, misaligned, or discoloured teeth. They can also be used to correct gaps between teeth, to make them appear straighter, and to change their shape or size.

At Verve Dental in Bentleigh East, we pride ourselves on providing our patients with the highest quality dental veneers. Dr Kamal Raj and the team have over 30 years of experience helping hundreds of patients rejuvenate their smiles with porcelain veneers, giving the beautiful, natural-looking smile that many desire. We understand that a beautiful smile is important to you, and we want to make sure that you are completely satisfied with the results of your treatment. Our team will work with you every step of the way to ensure you get the smile you want.

What Are The Benefits?

One of the main benefits of dental veneers is that they can be customised to match the colour, shape, and size of your natural teeth. This means that the final result will look natural and seamless. In addition, porcelain veneers are stain-resistant, which means that they will maintain their colour over time.

How Do I Know If Porcelain Veneers Will Work For Me?

One of the most common questions we get asked at Verve Dental is whether porcelain veneers are the right solution for your specific needs. To determine this, we conduct a comprehensive examination of your mouth, create models of your teeth and gums, and take extensive photos of your smile.

After the examination is completed, we will decide with you if porcelain veneers are the best option to help you achieve your desired results. It’s important to note that sometimes people assume that because their front teeth look bad, just fixing those alone will solve everything. In reality, the appearance of the front teeth is often the result of what is happening all over the mouth, including the breakdown of back teeth or unchecked gum disease.

The “Try Before You Buy” Smile

Once we start optimising your smile, we spend time recreating your design on models to show you what is possible. In addition, we generate a digital simulation with before and after pictures for you to look at. This is all before we even start working on your teeth. Once you approve of the “prototype,” we then prepare your teeth and place a trial smile directly on them to ensure they suit you.

Sometimes, the trial smile can be placed before your teeth are prepared to speed up the process of giving you an idea of how things will change.

How Much Do Porcelain Veneers Cost?

The cost of porcelain veneers varies depending on the number of teeth being treated and the complexity of the case. However, the average cost of a single veneer is around $1,800.

How Long Do Dental Veneers Last?

On average, dental veneers last 10-15 years. However, with proper care and maintenance, they can last as long as 20 years or more. To help prolong the life of your veneers, it’s essential to maintain good oral hygiene, avoid biting on hard objects and avoid excessive grinding or clenching of your teeth. Regular dental check-ups and professional teeth cleaning are also essential to ensure that your veneers are in good condition and to detect any potential issues early.

Whilst porcelain veneers are generally stain resistant, it’s important to be mindful of the types of foods and drinks you consume. Frequent consumption of certain substances, such as coffee, tea, and red wine, can stain or discolour your veneers over time. In addition, regular examinations of your veneers are necessary as decay, chips, and loosening can occur and often go unnoticed.

When I moved from Sydney to Melbourne two years ago, I had to find myself a new dentist. A friend recommended Dr Kamal Raj at Verve Dental. The recommendation was spot on. Dr Raj and his team could not be more friendly and professional. They even see you at the actual time of your appointment, which I find especially helpful and respectful. Their fees are very reasonable too.

2020 has not been kind to many people and finding out I was going to lose a front tooth was not news I wanted to hear. I am so thankful that I sort treatment from Dr Raj and Verve Dental. From the first day I stepped into the building to the day I walked out with my completed Implant every single employee at Verve made me feel comfortable and confident that I had nothing to worry about. Dr Raj explained everything in a way I could understand, and even went out of his way to explain things that interested me about the process. His very specialised torque wrench is measured in Newton Centimetres. My Implant looks exactly like the adjacent tooth, and if I didn’t point it out, I’d be surprised if you could tell that it wasn’t a real tooth. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Raj to anyone needing Dental work done.

Dr Raj has transformed my dental experience. He quickly identified that I needed to sit more upright to assist my breathing during dental treatment. This has made such a major difference for me - I'm no longer scared to go to the dentist. After years of bad expereiinces. I am so grateful his gentle and caring attitude allowed him to listen and find what worked for me.

I am normally afraid of dentists. I would avoid them like the Ebola however circumstances forced me to visit one. I choose Dr Raj. I couldn't be any happier with his service. He is gentle, caring and takes the time to explain things and make you feel comfortable. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. Please give him and his team a chance.

I recently completed my Invisalign journey with Dr Raj at Verve Dental, after being recommended from my partner and his family. The whole team at Verve made my experience extremely easy, stress free and comfortable. I am over the moon with my results from the treatment, which is it a testament to the advice, direction and special care given to me. I highly recommended Verve Dental to anyone who needs a gentle dentist who will look after them, from first phone call to the end of treatment. Thank you so much to Glennis, Karyn and Dr Raj for looking after me with such care. I will be continuing to see them for regular check ups.
