Look Like a Celebrity with Our Porcelain Veneers

Wednesday, August 12th, 2015

If you long for a flawless celebrity smile, we can assure you you’re in the best hands at Liverpool Dental Spa. We have an extensive list of celebrity clients and use the latest and greatest treatments to create stunning smiles. Whether you’re after all-out reality TV star glamour or desire a more subtle Duchess of Cambridge style look, veneers are the perfect treatment for you.

About porcelain veneers

Celebrities are famed for their radiant, bright smiles and with our porcelain veneers you’ll soon be following in the footsteps of your favourite famous people. If you dream of a red carpet worthy smile, porcelain veneers can help you achieve this goal with minimal hassle and just two sessions in the dental chair.

Veneers are wafer-thin, ultra light shells of porcelain designed to sit on top of your teeth to create a beautiful new smile. They can be used to hide a multitude of aesthetic sins, including:

  • chips
  • worn and uneven edges
  • jagged edges
  • staining and discolouration
  • gaps between the teeth
  • misshapen teeth

How does treatment work?

Veneer treatment can usually be completed in two sessions. Before treatment, we invite patients to pop in for an informal consultation so we can go through the treatment process, check your teeth, make sure that you are a good candidate for veneer treatment and answer any questions you have.

We’ll prepare the teeth during the first session and fit the veneers during the second appointment. Preparing the teeth involves gently etching away a very thin layer of the tooth structure to make space for the veneers and facilitate bonding. We then create impressions of the teeth and these are used to make your bespoke veneers.

The impressions are sent away to the dental lab and your veneers will be fabricated by incredibly skilled dental technicians. Once we have received your custom-designed veneers, it’s time to fit them. This involves placing them on your teeth and fixing them firmly using dental adhesive.

We offer a range of incredible veneer treatments including MACveneers, Da Vinci veneers and Lumineers. Call now and let us transform your smile!

Makeover Your Smile with Luxurious Lumineers

Wednesday, July 8th, 2015

If you’re searching for a treatment to makeover your smile with a touch of luxury, Lumineers could be the perfect choice. These high grade veneers have an outstanding reputation for producing beautiful, radiant smiles.

About Lumineers

Lumineers are a type of veneer that provide natural-looking aesthetics for a bright and beautiful smile. These veneers are different to other veneers because they are made from a patented ceramic material specially formulated in the USA by Cerinate. Lumineers are incredibly thin, but they are also very durable and they last up to twice as long as other veneers.

Lumineer treatment

Normally with veneers, the teeth require preparation before the veneers are placed to make space for the new shells. However, with Lumineers, as the veneers are so thin, minimal preparation is required. Your dentist will gently etch the tooth surfaces to ready them for the veneers and the Lumineers can then be bonded onto the teeth to create a stunning new smile. Treatment involves two sessions only: one session to check your teeth and create impressions and a second session to fit your bespoke Lumineers.

The benefits of Lumineers

Lumineers offer many benefits for those looking to transform the appearance of their smile. These veneers look incredible but they are also very strong, so they represent a really good investment. They should last around 20 years, so you can enjoy a beautiful, timeless smile. As Lumineers are so thin and light, preparation is minimal and this means the structure of the tooth remains intact. This not only prevents weakening, it also means that treatment is reversible. Lumineers are also versatile and they can solve a variety of common aesthetic problems including chipped and worn teeth, gaps between the teeth and staining.

If you like the sound of Lumineers, why not call us today and treat yourself to a brand new bright smile in time for summer?

With our incredible veneer treatments, we can address all kinds of  cosmetic flaws and create stunning, flawless smiles.

About veneers

This extremely popular cosmetic dental treatment is renowned for creating amazing looking smiles using small, tooth-shaped shells, which are fixed onto the surface of the natural teeth.

Veneers can be used to combat aesthetic flaws such as chipped teeth, worn tooth edges and unsightly discolouration and they are also an effective means of creating a more glamorous, brighter smile. We can also use veneers to hide gaps between the teeth and address flaws with an individual tooth.

Veneer treatments

We offer an extensive collection of veneer treatments, including:

  • Da Vinci veneers: these veneers are often chosen by the Hollywood stars and are famed for their beautiful results. These porcelain veneers look stunning and they are the perfect choice for anyone who wants a smile that really stands out and gets them noticed.

  • MACveneers: MACveneers are coloured from the inside out using an array of hues for an amazing natural look. They are also incredibly hard-wearing and they are stain-resistant for a timeless look.

 

Marvellous MAC Veneers in the City of Liverpool

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2014

MAC veneers are a unique veneer treatment that creates stunning smiles. These veneers offer style as well as strength and durability and they are guaranteed to transform any smile.

About MAC veneers

MAC veneers are a type of veneer made from high-grade pressed ceramic. These veneers are designed and manufactured in California and they offer much greater durability than traditional porcelain veneers. On average, these veneers last twice as long as normal veneers and they are coloured from the inside using a range of different hues to create a beautiful, natural look.

MAC veneers are strong and they are also resistant to staining, meaning that your smile will sparkle for many years to come.

How could MAC veneers help me?

MAC veneers are capable of addressing a number of common dental and aesthetic issues, including chipped teeth, worn tooth surfaces, discolouration and staining and small spaces between the teeth. With MAC veneers, the smile will look absolutely perfect and you can enjoy greater confidence when you smile and meet new people.

The treatment process

MAC veneers are fitted in two separate appointments. During the first appointment, we will discuss the ins and outs of treatment and talk you through the process. We will also create impressions of your teeth and take photographs, which will be sent to the MicroDental Laboratory in the USA. The teeth will be gently etched to make space for the veneers.

The second appointment is the exciting part; your new veneers will be placed on top of your teeth and then firmly secured once you are happy with the look of your smile. You can then look forward to stepping outside and showing your new smile to the world!

Rejuvenate Your Smile In The Heart Of Liverpool

Tuesday, November 26th, 2013

Do you long for a perfect white smile? Are you fed up of looking in the mirror to see chipped and worn teeth? If so, we could help! Our amazing veneer treatments create bright and beautiful smiles, which will boost your confidence and ensure you feel great every time you look in the mirror or pose for a photograph.

Veneers are very thin sheets of tooth-shaped ceramic, which are applied over the top of your natural teeth to produce a perfect smile. They are often likened to false nails because they sit over the top of the teeth in a similar way to a false nail on top of a natural nail.

Our veneer treatments

At Liverpool Dental Spa we offer the finest porcelain veneers to give you a flawless, natural and gleaming smile. Veneers are a very popular treatment and they can address a number of common problems, including chipped, uneven and worn teeth, spaces between the teeth and stained and discoloured teeth. The aim of veneers is to create your perfect smile; you will be invited to get involved in the design of your new smile and to choose shades and shapes to match your ideas and expectations.

The procedure

After your initial consultation when we will discuss the kind of veneers and the shades and shapes you would like, we will start the treatment process. Before the veneers can be applied to the teeth, we prepare the teeth to make space for the new veneers; this requires very minor etching, which will be done under local anaesthetic to prevent any discomfort. One the teeth have been prepared, we will use dental putty to create impressions of your teeth and these will be used as templates for your veneers. Once your veneers are ready, we will then fit them onto your teeth and secure them in place using dental adhesive; you will then be ready to flash your gorgeous new smile.

Porcelain veneers transform smiles for better first impressions and a beautiful appearance. When others smile the state of their teeth can be noticeable.

About porcelain veneers

Porcelain veneers are a cosmetic dentistry option for masking teeth stains and discolouration or for straightening mildly misaligned teeth. Crafted with the finest porcelain into custom-made veneers, cosmetic dentists bond sculpted veneers to minimally etched tooth surface. The shade and shape of the porcelain veneers are carefully selected as part of a person’s unique smile design.

Porcelain veneers transform smiles

Summer is upon us. It’s a time when we want to look our best and be out in the sunshine. Some of us may have an exciting business prospect or a special occasion such as a birthday or wedding to look forward to.

Having a smile makeover with porcelain veneers enhances our natural beauty and can makes us feel more attractive. Those with discoloured or mildly misaligned teeth may improve their dentition and expression with porcelain veneers to mask yellowed teeth or align skew and irregularly spaced teeth.

Our front teeth are often visible when we smile and may add to or detract from beautiful features. By improving the quality of our front teeth in the smile zone with porcelain veneers, others see cleverly loved porcelain veneers that mimics healthy dentition.

Access porcelain veneers treatment

At Liverpool Dental Spa in the heart of Liverpool we offer treatment with porcelain veneers for an aesthetically-pleasing smile and a boost in self-confidence. The treatment usually involves two appointments for taking of dental impressions and images before creation of bespoke porcelain veneers for a beautiful smile. Get in touch with us today to learn more about the benefits of porcelain veneers for the ultimate smile makeover.

Friday, February 15th, 2013

If you feel self-conscious about discoloured, damaged or mildly misaligned teeth, dental veneers may be just the solution you are looking for. You may be aware that there are different types of veneers available, made of porcelain or white composite.

At Liverpool Dental Spa, we take pride in offering individuals options for improving tooth quality and aesthetics. Our Lumineers veneer treatment is one favoured by many in the UK and abroad.

Lumineers fill gaps between teeth for a balanced and beautiful smile. Fractured and chipped teeth may be restored for healthy dental function and cosmetic appeal. Dental discolouration may be masked so that teeth look healthy and white.

Start The New Year In Style With MAC Veneers For Patients In Liverpool

Wednesday, January 2nd, 2013

January is a time of year when many of us vow to make a big change in our lives, whether it is to lose weight or finally fix a dental problem. If you’ve spent the last few years with a smile you’re less than happy with now is the time to make a change at the renowned Liverpool Implant & Aesthetic Dental Spa.

If your teeth are stained or discoloured, chipped, fractured or worn, MAC Veneers are a great choice to improve the quality of your smile. The veneers are made using a revolutionary pressed ceramic technique to make them more resistant to staining and chipping, with the added benefit that they can last three times longer than ordinary veneers.

Veneer treatment

This treatment might be right for you if you have gaps between your teeth or where crookedness or misalignment is present. You will receive a beautiful, straight smile with not an ounce of the hassle of orthodontic treatment, which can last many months or even years! Following your initial consultation, the veneers will be fitted in just two visits to our dental spa.

During the procedure, we will first etch the teeth which are to receive veneers and take impressions and photos of them. These and other details related to your preferred shape and colour of veneer are sent to the MicroDental Laboratory in California, where the veneers were invented and continue to be manufactured. On your second visit we will clean your teeth and perform any mild preparatory treatments if necessary, before transforming your smile during what is a short treatment process.

Some time may pass between your first visit and your fitting as we await the return of your new teeth. This is because MicroDental Laboratory is the sole provider of these veneers and do not have a ready-made stock of veneers at their disposal. The company prides itself in hand-tailoring each set of veneers to suit individual patients, and we are here to ensure the experience of their fitting is just as good. Contact Liverpool Dental Spa in Liverpool for more information.

 

 

Da Vinci Veneers-The Ultimate Thin Veneer Treatment For Patients In Liverpool

Tuesday, November 6th, 2012

For the last 25 years, Da Vinci Veneers has been a favourite choice for many who wanted to use veneers to get rid of their dental imperfections. The major difference between Da Vinci Veneers and other veneers is that they are thinner, last longer and offer greater resistance to chipping and stains.

There are many reasons that cause an individual to be dissatisfied with their smile and Da Vinci Veneers are capable of fixing many of these issues within just 2 or 3 visits to the dentist. Clients who have their teeth chipped, cracked or just need a new surface can benefit from Da Vinci Veneers. Stains on the teeth due to years of red wine and tobacco usage are very difficult to remove. Many times these cannot be completely removed by professional teeth whitening techniques. Even in such cases, Da Vinci Veneers can provide the desired solution. Teeth that have small gaps between them and teeth that are misaligned can also be fixed with the help of Da Vinci Veneers.

The Procedure

Firstly the dentist will analyse the smile and mouth of the patient. The main objective of this analysis is to ensure whether or not veneers are the best option to fix the problem. If the patient is a suitable candidate for Da Vinci Veneers then the dentist will discuss about the colour, shape and size of the veneers. This way the patient remains in charge of all the available choices.

Next the patient’s teeth will be prepared to receive veneers. This will involve the slight removal of enamel from the surface of the tooth. Pictures and impression of the teeth along with your preference for the colour, shape and size will then be sent to the Da Vinci laboratory in California where it’s fabricated. The patient will need to wait for two weeks before the Da Vinci veneers arrive, during this time the patient can wear temporary veneers. Two weeks later Da Vinci veneers will be secured to the teeth using dental cement. If you would like to discuss Da Vinci Veneers with us in more detail, contact the team at Liverpool Dental Spa and be on your way to a whiter, brighter smile.

 

 

Cover Those Imperfections With High Quality Veneers For Patients In Liverpool

Thursday, October 4th, 2012

Alas, everything from a major accident to drinking tea can negatively impact on your teeth and, unless you have been eating tofu in a bubble since birth, chances are some cosmetic blemishes will have reared their niggling little features on those otherwise pristine and pearly whites. Dental veneers are wafer thin shells of tooth-like material which can be affixed to your teeth, thus covering up anything undesired and providing the appearance of perfect teeth. Veneers can help cover gaps, hide stains, and seemingly repair damage teeth and, although not ideal, can even aid with marginally crooked teeth in a process nicknamed ‘instant orthodontics’. There are different types of veneer and the debate tends to be between ‘porcelain or composite’ veneers – which is better? At Liverpool Dental Spa we prefer ‘Lumineers’ – the veneer equivalent of dynamite in a game of rock-paper-scissors.

What are Lumineers?

Lumineers are a special type of Veneer made from very thin, but very strong, material.

The advantages of Lumineers

Standard veneers are often called ‘false nails for the teeth,’ in part on account of their thickness. In contrast, Lumineers are called ‘contact lenses for the teeth’ on account of how thin they are. Why exactly is this of any advantage? Standard Veneers require a portion of your front teeth to be removed in order to accommodate them, thus making the process irreversible. Lumineers, in contrast, require little to no teeth preparation, meaning the process can often be reversed.   Composite veneers also tend to have a lifespan of two years at best, whilst Porcelain Veneers typically last for between five and ten years. Lumineers, in contrast, can last for up to twenty years. Lumineers cost more than other veneers, but their durability can make them more cost-effective in the long run. Lumineers are also very versatile and should be able to fit over any other dental work you have had done without any problem.

Do all dentists offer this treatment?

No, but we at Liverpool Dental Spa do. If this specialist treatment sounds right for you, then why not call us for a consultation?
