Smile design for veneers, what we mock up first
Digital design, try-in, and consent, before irreversible enamel reduction.
Where we start
We start with high-resolution photos, shade mapping, and a digital wax-up that shows proposed tooth length, width, and gingival display on your own smile photo, not a generic Hollywood template.
Minimal prep, when it is realistic
Minimal-prep veneers preserve enamel where the tooth position allows. When rotation or colour change is ambitious, we explain exactly how much reduction is required and where no-prep options are unrealistic.
Try-in before bonding
A try-in appointment lets you approve texture, incisal translucency, and midline before bonding. Changes at this stage are inexpensive; changes after cementation are not.
Longevity and bruxism
Bruxism and edge chipping risk are discussed early. Night guards and occlusal adjustment are part of longevity planning, not optional accessories.
