Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are hand-made pieces of porcelain, designed by highly skilled dental technicians, that are bonded to the front surfaces of teeth.




Porcelain Veneers Stoke-on-trent
The veneer acts like a permanent cosmetic finger nail and this is layered on top of the surface of the tooth to recreate an ideal tooth surface. The benefits of veneers are that they are very life-like and have the option to correct misshapen or discoloured teeth.
The results can be immediate, without the need to attend multiple appointments or to undergo months of treatment.
We commonly use veneers for cosmetic makeovers and the results are dramatic
Veneers could be used for:
Discoloured teeth
Gaps in between
Chipped and worn teeth
Lengthen short teeth
Expertly Crafted for a Perfect Fit and Natural Look in Stoke-On-Trent
Unlike other dental practices, we actually make our own porcelain veneers, which gives the dentist the ultimate control in tooth morphology and colour match. The cost of the veneers is reflected by the excellent fit and also the detailed replication of nature.
Here are some examples of the previous cases. After years of performing cosmetic makeovers with porcelain veneers, we believe that it is extremely important to work closely with our partners. We have treated many patients from all around Stoke On Trent, Newcastle Under Lyme and Congleton.


The step-by-step process is explained
During an initial visit to our dentist in Kidsgrove Dental, we’ll have a chat with you to discuss your needs and requirements. We’ll take some digital photos of your existing smile, and using these, we’ll have a good idea of what it is you want to achieve. From the information collected, we’ll develop a fully-customised plan of action to restore your smile to its former glory. Before you leave, you’ll have a thorough understanding of exactly what’s being done, roughly how long it’s going to take, and most importantly, what the outcome is going to look like.
Once you’ve given us the go-ahead, the next step is to compile a wax mock-up of your smile by taking a digital impression. These impressions are then used to create an exact model of your teeth. This model is important because it becomes a basis from which to make your provisional or temporary veneers. Temporaries are normally fashioned from acrylic. Once you are happy with your digital demonstration and your physical wax, we can move on to the preparation stage.
At this visit, a very small amount of enamel is removed in order to make space for the veneers. The wax-up is used as a guide to ensure that only just enough enamel is reduced to ensure a higher level of accuracy.
On the visit that the teeth are prepared, the temporary veneers are fitted. We make these temporaries with the final shape in mind. When fitted, the temporary process gives you a chance to approve the look and appearance of your veneers and to see how they feel in the mouth (a kind of ‘trial smile’ if you like).
At this point, if you’re not feeling totally happy with how your smile looks, then we advise you to talk to us, and we’ll make any necessary adjustments before your permanent veneers are fitted.
Do bear in mind that once you have your permanent veneers, the process can’t be reversed. Typically temporaries don’t have gaps between teeth like proper veneers would, and they may also be a little thicker. This trial period can last a few weeks up to a few months. Once you’re happy and any adjustments have been made, then you give us the go-ahead, and we’ll see that your permanent veneers are made.
On the day of the final fit, the first thing our dentist in Cheadle Hulme will do is remove your temporary veneers, plus any remains of the fixative holding them in place. Next, the teeth and gums are numbed. The porcelain veneers are placed into position using a quick-drying bonding agent, which is applied to the veneer before it’s attached to the tooth.
Then using a light wand, light permeates through the veneer to the bonding agent below, removing any moisture and allowing it to set quicker. The final step is to get rid of any excess cement and polishes the veneers to the desired shape in order to complete the look and feel of your perfect smile.
We commonly ask our dental laboratory to make our veneers in Emax. Emax is a material that has been in the market for around 17 years now and is used for veneers, crowns and bridges.
Kidsgrove Dental & Implant Centre uses this material exclusively for all our cases as it combines excellent aesthetics and strength.
This is what EMax veneers should look like – Indistinguishable from real teeth, looking exactly like real teeth, with all the perfect imperfections of nature built into them.
