What Our Patients Say
Porcelain vs Composite: Which One Is Right for You?
Choosing between porcelain and composite depends on your goals and preferences. Porcelain is known for its durability, natural appearance, and resistance to stains, and typically lasts 10-15 years or longer. They require a lengthier process unless created using CEREC® same-day technology.
Composites are made from a tooth-coloured resin and can often be applied in a single visit. While more affordable, they are less durable and last around five to seven years.
Our team will guide you through the options to determine which type suits your needs best.
We offer a range of payment plans for your convenience, including the ability to fund your dental treatment through your super.
Preparing for Your New Restoration
The process begins with a consultation to assess your oral health and discuss your smile goals. Depending on your choice of material, the procedure may vary.
When using porcelain, our dentist reshapes your tooth’s surface (around 0.5-0.75 mm) before taking impressions for your custom tooth covers. A temporary one is placed while the permanent ones are crafted in a lab. During your second visit, typically about two weeks later, we remove the temporaries and bond the permanent ones to your teeth.
Using advanced CEREC technology, we take digital scans of your teeth and use them to design and mill your veneers in a single appointment. These custom shells are bonded on the same day, streamlining the process.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between porcelain and composite veneers?
Porcelain veneers are crafted from premium ceramic materials, offering exceptional durability, a natural appearance, and strong resistance to staining. They tend to last longer than composite veneers and provide a highly polished, natural look. However, the process for porcelain veneers can take a bit longer unless same-day CEREC technology is used.
Composite veneers, made from a tooth-coloured resin, are a more budget-friendly option. They can often be applied in a single visit, but they are more prone to staining and typically have a shorter lifespan.
