As the saying goes, “A smile is the curve that sets everything straight”. Your smile is often the first thing people notice, and it can significantly impact your confidence and self-esteem. If you’re struggling with discolouration, or imperfections or simply dislike the shape or size of your teeth, dental veneers can be a game-changer.
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to improve the appearance of teeth by covering their front surface. They are typically made from porcelain or composite resin and bonded to teeth to create a natural, attractive look.
At Soothe Dental Goulburn, we offer both porcelain veneers and composite veneers (the material used for the actual veneer).
Porcelain veneers provide the most premium result as they are the material most similar to human enamel and require a ceramicist to custom-make them.
Composite veneers are made from tooth-coloured resin and can be done at a lower cost, as they can be done in a single visit by the dentist.
Our experienced team ensures that each veneer is meticulously crafted to match your natural teeth’s shape, size, and colour for a seamless, beautiful smile. Whether you’re looking to correct imperfections or achieve a complete smile makeover, we are here to help you every step of the way.
1
Consultation
During your consultation at Soothe Dental Goulburn, we assess your dental health and discuss your aesthetic goals. We’ll provide a customised treatment plan outlining the pros, cons, costs, and timelines to ensure you’re fully informed before proceeding with your veneers.
2
Trial Smile
We collaborate closely with our ceramicists, sending them photos and digital molds (3D models) of your teeth to create a digitally designed blueprint. This temporary ‘trial smile’ allows you to preview the final result and provide feedback before the actual procedure begins.
3
Preparation
Using the trial smile as a guide, we remove the minimal amount of enamel necessary to accommodate the veneers, adhering to our commitment to minimally invasive dentistry. Temporary veneers are then placed, allowing you to test the look and feel over 2-3 weeks.
4
Bonding
Finally, the permanent veneers are bonded to your teeth using a strong adhesive, completing your smile transformation. The entire process is designed for comfort and efficiency, ensuring optimal results.
composite veneers
The process is even simpler. After your consultation, the composite resin is directly bonded to your teeth in a single appointment, with adjustments and polishing done until you and the dentist are satisfied. In many cases, no enamel removal is needed.

Non-Invasive Alternative to Orthodontics
For patients with minor misalignments, veneers can provide a non-invasive alternative to orthodontic treatment. They can create the appearance of straighter teeth without the need for braces or aligners.
The longevity of dental veneers can vary depending on the type and how well they are maintained. Porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 15 years, while composite veneers may last around 5 to 7 years with proper care.
At Soothe Dental Goulburn, we use the most reputable, highest-quality materials and the latest evidence-based techniques to ensure your veneers are durable and long-lasting. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene practices will help extend the life of your veneers.
Getting veneers is generally a painless procedure, so much so that sometimes even local anaesthesia is unnecessary!
At Soothe Dental Goulburn, we always prioritise your comfort and aim to minimise any discomfort during the veneer process. Most patients find the procedure straightforward and relatively pain-free.
Most people with healthy teeth and gums are good candidates for veneers. However, individuals with severe tooth decay, gum disease, or insufficient enamel may need to address these issues before getting veneers.
At Soothe Dental Goulburn, our team will thoroughly examine whether veneers are the right option for you. We will provide personalised recommendations to ensure you achieve the best possible outcome.
