Porcelain Dental Veneers
Your smile is one of the greatest assets you’re born with yet still lasts your entire life. It can be the brilliant centrepiece of your face that can open doors, resolve problems and generally improve the quality of your life. That explains why so many different cosmetic dental procedures are available today. However, one option that offers an ideal combination of flexibility and strength is dental veneers.
At the Dentists @ Belmore, we offer composite and porcelain options to best fit your needs. Dr Ibrahim has trained worldwide, in places like Athens, Geneva, and Milan, to adopt the materials, techniques, and strategies to best achieve your goals. As a result, you can have wonderfully straight, white, and bright teeth in a relatively short amount of time with dental veneers.
What Makes Dental Veneers So Great?
Veneers are thin shells designed to cover the fronts of your teeth. Because they solve so many problems, our dental team considers them an excellent choice if you need to fix one or even a combination of the following tooth flaws:
- Slightly crooked teeth
- Smaller teeth gaps
- Worn or misshapen teeth
- Misalignments like one tooth taller than its neighbour
- Tooth discolouration (after you’ve tried professional teeth whitening)
- Chips, cracks or minor fractures
Dr Ibrahim will custom design your veneer, selecting the material and perfectly matching the colour of your adjacent teeth. If you choose a porcelain veneer, you can expect to wait around a week for the lab to create your veneer. Composite veneers may be ready on your same visit. Dental veneers are minimally invasive. Dr Ibrahim will remove a small amount of enamel, so your veneer fits into your tooth surface.
Experience and Expertise in Cosmetic Dentistry
Because your tooth will need to be adjusted for veneer bonding, this restoration is considered permanent. However, as with any long-lasting decision, you want to trust its application to only the most qualified professionals. Dr Ibrahim has undertaken multiple courses in cosmetic dentistry from Sydney to Melbourne and in cosmopolitan European cities where the standards of beauty originate. From these experiences, Dr Ibrahim has learned precisely which treatment details will improve your outcomes.
Your Smile Satisfaction Is Our Goal
Versatility, simplicity and durability are all reasons that dental veneers are a fantastic way to enhance your smile! If you’d like to learn more about how cosmetic dentistry can improve your life, our dental team is ready to help you start the journey. We encourage you to schedule a consultation with Dr Ibrahim to learn if you are a good candidate for veneers.
Our mission is to show you how you may reach your smile goals so that you don’t have to spend another day hiding your smile. We also suggest that before your appointment, think of people in the public spotlight whose smiles you admire so Dr Ibrahim can see your vision too. In addition, if your teeth are in good health overall, we can create a treatment plan, including dental veneers, that will make you admire your smile as well.
Frequently Asked Questions
Here at The Dentists @ Belmore, we try our best to respect your time and we expect our patients to do the same. Arriving late (more than 15 minutes), short notice cancellations and failure to attend leads to disruptions to our patients and staff.
As a small privately-owned dental practice, we are financially strained when patients miss appointments. We are not a large corporation and we do not treat our patients as numbers.
We like to give our patients the full scope of our knowledge and care, and we like each patient experience to be personalised, as dental care should be. We aim to provide you with an exceptional service at an affordable cost. Chair time lost to no shows or short notice cancellations impacts our ability to run our small business.
It is in ours and our patients’ best interest that we keep lost chair time to a minimum.
We ask our patients to give at least 24 hour notice before cancellation or rescheduling. It is very difficult to fill in these appointments, so please let us know well ahead of time if you need to reschedule.
Holding your appointment time means turning away other patients in urgent need of dental care. Therefore, any missed or short notice cancellations will attract a cancellation fee of $50.
Our cancellation policy is as follows:
- Our patients are required to pay a $50 holding fee to secure their appointment.
- The holding fee will be taken off the final cost of your appointment.
- Cancelling an appointment with more than 24 hour notice is absolutely fine. We can accommodate for this.
- Failing to attend, rescheduling, or cancelling an appointment with less than 24 hours notice leads to a $50 cancellation fee, which means forfeiting the $50 holding deposit.
- If you wish to re-book after cancelling within 24 hours, you will be required to pay another $50 holding fee.
- We always send out an SMS reminder or we call our patients well in advance to confirm the appointment.
- We reserve the right to ask for the cost of treatment upfront before making another appointment. This is a last resort option only if there is a recurring cancellation pattern.
- New patients who fail to attend or cancel with less than 24 hours notice on two consecutive occasions will not be rebooked.
For long appointments such as whitening or root canals, we will require a deposit at the time of booking.
