Dental veneers in Alicante
Including redoing veneers that have started to show their age.
Replacing old veneers
An old veneer nearly always gives itself away at the margin: the gum recedes, a dark line appears, and the whole thing stops looking natural. Replacing one is harder than fitting a new one, because it has to come off without damaging the tooth underneath.
What is underneath
Taking an old veneer off can reveal anything from sound enamel to exposed dentine or decay. What we find decides what can be done next, which is why we say in advance that the plan may have to be adjusted.

At this clinic

We work out why the previous work started to show before proposing a replacement, because the cause is often periodontal rather than the material.
We warn in advance about what may turn up once the old units come off.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions about this treatment
01 How long do porcelain veneers last?
With correct hygiene and regular check-ups, the service life is long. The factor that shortens it most is uncontrolled bruxism: if you clench, a night guard is part of the treatment.
02 Do veneers look artificial?
Not when they are properly planned. Porcelain reproduces the translucency of enamel and the design starts from your facial proportions. What reads as artificial usually comes from a shade that is too uniform and a shape that is too symmetrical.
03 Does a lot of tooth have to be filed down?
We work with minimal preparation and, in selected cases, none at all. The less enamel we touch, the better the long-term prognosis.
04 Can I eat normally?
Yes. It is worth avoiding biting hard objects such as ice, or opening things with your teeth — the same as with natural teeth.
05 Can veneers be removed?
The bonding is adhesive and definitive. If one needs replacing in future, it is substituted with another. That is why the prior aesthetic trial matters so much: it is the moment to change your mind.
