What is a Dental Veneer?
Veneers are bonded onto reshaped teeth to cover up any aesthetic concerns providing a solution to enhance your smile’s appearance. Hence they are also known as “tooth bondings”. The 2 main types of Veneers are Composite Resin Veneers (also known as Composite Bonding) and Porcelain/Ceramic Veneers.
Whilst Veneers are a fantastic option to enhance your smile, it is important to note that they may not always be the best solution. Remember to speak to us prior to any treatment to ensure that you are choosing the best veneers option in Keysborough.
Signs you might need Veneers
- Your teeth are misshaped and misaligned
- The colour of your teeth is unaesthetic and you’ve tried whitening and fillings to mask it – but they just don’t cut it!
- You need multiple teeth to be corrected:
- Veneers are made in sets of 2, 4 or 6 at a time. This is so we can ensure that they match with themselves and other teeth – symmetrically.

Types of Veneers
There are several types of veneers which can be bonded onto your teeth:
- Porcelain veneers are known for their durability, stain resistance, and natural appearance, making them a popular choice for long-term aesthetic improvements. They require minimal maintenance and typically last longer than composite veneers. They are custom lab made (indirect dental restoration) and require multiple visits.
- Ceramic Veneers are another name for porcelain veneers. Whilst we use the two terms interchangeably, Porcelain is a type of ceramic and generally speaking, we tend NOT to use porcelain as the material of choice nowadays. The two main types of Ceramic Veneers used are E.max (Lithium Disilicate) or Zirconia veneers, the former being the most popular.
- Composite veneers are more affordable and can be applied in a single visit to the dentist and are made up of the same material as a dental filling. While they may not last as long as porcelain veneers and are more prone to staining, they can still provide satisfactory aesthetic results, especially for those with budget constraints or seeking a temporary solution.

Payment PlansFrequently Asked Questions
- Should I choose Porcelain Veneers or Composite Veneers?
- Your choice of veneers depends on various factors including your specific dental needs, budget, and aesthetic preferences.
- Veneer or a Crown?
- Custom-made crowns and veneers often use similar materials. Veneers typically necessitate minimal tooth preparation and are suitable for teeth with aesthetic concerns but are otherwise healthy. Crowns are not as conservative in terms of tooth preparation and should only be considered in cases where the original tooth structure is weak.
- How long do Veneers last?
- Veneers have an average lifespan of 5 to 10 years and after this period, black stains at the margin may occur and they may need to be replaced. Veneers are prone to chipping and fracture so additional protection is recommended.
- How much do Porcelain Veneers cost in Keysborough?
- Composite veneers can cost up to a few hundred dollars and ceramic veneers up to (a maximum of) about $1,500. This depends on the style, material and difficulty of the case. Every case if different so consider making a Cosmetic Dental consult appointment with us to get an accurate quote.
- Do I need an Occlusal Splint after a Veneer procedure?
- We always recommend that you get an occlusal splint (grinding guard) to protect those new pearly white teeth bondings! Veneers are very prone to facture so protecting them long term with a splint will greatly reduce the risk of chipping or fracture. We believe that this is so essential for veneers that we occasionally include this as part of our treatment for porcelain veneers.
