If you have a chipped or slightly damaged tooth you may require a dental veneer, especially if it’s at the front of your mouth. A cosmetic dental veneer is a very thin layer of tooth-coloured material, such as porcelain, which is used to ‘smooth over’ a chipped or slightly damaged tooth.

Once it’s in place, a dental veneer is practically invisible to the naked eye and your tooth won’t feel any different. It’ll simply protect your tooth from any more damage and give you a more confident and flattering smile. Veneers can also be used to ‘close’ small gaps between teeth.
