From consultation to review
01
Meet and explore
Tell us what you would like to change. We assess your smile and take the records needed for planning.
02
Design your smile
Together, we plan the teeth involved, proportions, shade and overall character, with a written plan and quote.
03
Preview the proposed result
Where appropriate, digital and provisional stages let you respond to shape, length and balance.
04
Prepare and craft
Only the preparation indicated for your case is completed. Where provisionals are used, they help protect prepared teeth while the porcelain is crafted.
05
Fit, refine and care
We check appearance, fit, bite and comfort, then guide you through home care and ongoing reviews.
Porcelain veneers may be considered when you would like a coordinated change to the colour, shape or proportion of selected visible teeth.
Colour that whitening may not resolve
For selected discolouration or uneven shade where changing natural tooth colour alone may not deliver the look you want.
Chips, wear or uneven edges
To create a smoother, more even appearance across selected visible teeth.
Small gaps or uneven proportions
To refine the visible size, shape or spacing of selected teeth.
A more cohesive smile
To coordinate changes in colour, shape and proportion.
Costs and long-term care
Veneer costs and ongoing care.
Porcelain veneers
From $1,200per tooth
Your total depends on the number of teeth involved, preparation complexity, materials, laboratory requirements and any care needed first. After your assessment, you receive a written plan and personalised quote.
Payment plans may be available to approved applicants. Health fund benefits depend on your policy and are often limited for cosmetic treatment.
Porcelain veneers are irreversible and usually require some enamel preparation. They can chip, fracture or need replacement over time, and they do not protect teeth from decay or gum disease.
Your dentist will explain likely preparation, benefits, alternatives, risks and maintenance for your case before you consent.
Suitability, preparation, results and longevity vary by person. Your written plan will set out the proposed treatment, costs, aftercare and review arrangements.
Natural-looking veneers are planned as part of your whole smile, not selected from a uniform template. We consider shade, translucency, shape, length and proportion alongside your face and natural teeth.
Can I preview the proposed result?
Planning may include digital visualisation and a provisional trial smile where appropriate. These stages let you discuss shape, length and balance before the final porcelain is made. A preview is a planning guide, not a guarantee of an identical result.
What should I expect from preparation and recovery?
The amount of enamel preparation varies with the starting tooth position, shape and planned result, and any removal is irreversible. When preparation is needed, local anaesthetic is typically used. Temporary sensitivity or gum tenderness can occur after preparation or fitting; your dentist will explain what to expect for your case.
How much do porcelain veneers cost?
Porcelain veneers at Ivy Dental start from $1,200 per tooth. Your written quote will reflect the number of teeth, preparation complexity, materials, laboratory requirements and any care needed first.
How long do porcelain veneers last?
Porcelain veneers do not last forever. Longevity varies with the material, your bite and habits, oral health and ongoing care. Daily cleaning, regular reviews and a night guard when prescribed can all matter.
What if I am not sure veneers are right for me?
At your consultation, we assess suitability and discuss your options. No tooth preparation takes place at the first visit.
