| Q |
How
long will my porcelain veneers last? |
| |
|
| A |
They
will not wear out and materials can last a lifetime. They
are however, subject to breakage, just like your real teeth.

|
| Q |
Will this process ruin my natural teeth? |
| |
|
| A |
Every
effort is made to avoid detriment to your teeth. By using
microscopes and specially designed dental instruments, we
can ensure that minimal damage is done. In fact, teeth that
have been filled or are particularly worn over time may actually
be strengthened by this process! |
| |
|
| Q |
Does
it hurt? |
| |
|
| A |
Most
procedures are totally painless and are done with no anaesthetic.
Occasionally, as in the case of veneers, we offer basic
local anaesthetic that is common to standard dental fillings.
In some very complicated cases, we have the full range of
pain relieving solutions, including, general anaesthetic,
if necessary.

| Q |
How
much do you charge for crowns and veneers? |
| |
|

kind of crown or veneer or you interested in? PFM (porcelain
fused metal), precious or non precious, layered or stained,
all ceramic, Procera, Empress, Eris, Lava, Inceram, pressed
or feldspathic, translucent or opacious ingots?
As you can see, crowns and veneers are as varied as the cars
we drive. Even knowing these variables, when you cost
compare, you may not fully appreciate the value of these services
since the individual artistries of dentists and ceramists
are varied. |

work. |
| |
|
| Q |
How can I avoid the “Chicklet look”? |

A
high degree of design and artistry is the key to aesthetic
work. Our goal is to ensure that each tooth helps create a
look that is both complimentary to your face and overall appearance
and naturally undetectable. |
