Why do some veneers look natural and some don’t

At Dental Concepts, we’re specialists in cosmetic dentistry, we often encounter patients who are keen to opt for dental veneers. When it comes to looking natural, we believe that’s both an art and a science.

Whether you’re considering veneers in the UK or veneers abroad, it’s important to understand the factors that contribute to the final aesthetic result. We’re going to run through what makes some veneers appear natural and others not so much. But before we do, here’s a little more about Dental Concepts.

Dental Concepts is a family-owned practice, located in Southampton, Andover, Poole and Whitchurch. Led by Dr Manish Chitnis and Dr Shilpa Chitnis, the practices focus on delivering excellent general dentistry while specialising in cosmetic and restorative dentistry.

Porcelain vs composite
One of the biggest factors that influences the appearance of veneers is the type of material that is used. Porcelain veneers are widely considered the best veneers, they achieve a natural yet beautiful finish. They’re also considered the most durable and are stain-resistant.

While porcelain veneers closely mimic the translucency and light-reflecting properties of natural tooth enamel, it is possible to get a natural finish with a composite material. That being said, the skill of the dentist who is fitting the composite veneers is incredibly important.

When searching for "veneers near me" or "cosmetic dentist near me" you’ll likely find that many recommend porcelain veneers for their superior aesthetics.


The Skill of the Dentist
As we mentioned above, another crucial element is the skill and experience of the dentist.

Crafting veneers that look natural requires a deep understanding of tooth anatomy, colour matching, and facial aesthetics. This is where the expertise of a dentist near you can make all the difference. At Dental Concepts we use specialised digital smile design, which allows us to create a smile design that suits your face and bite.

Digital smile design not only gives us the power to create an incredible smile but also allows us to provide you with a trial smile. This means with a temporary material, you can try your smile on before you go ahead with permanent treatment.

Whether you’re looking at getting veneers in the UK or exploring options for veneers abroad, such as through dental tourism, the skill of the dentist is paramount.
 

Avoiding the ‘Turkey Teeth’ Look

The current trend of opting for having veneers abroad, or more specifically going abroad for Turkey veneers. The term ‘Turkey teeth’ often refers to veneers that are too white, too large and too uniform in shape. While this may be what some want to opt for, this is not the approach we take, we want to make sure you leave with a smile that is both natural and beautiful.

While dental tourism can be tempting due to lower costs, it’s essential to consider the risks involved. The best veneers are those that enhance your smile naturally, without drawing attention for the wrong reasons.

Customisation is Key
A natural-looking veneer should be customised to fit your smile. This involves considering factors such as the shape, size, and colour of your natural teeth, as well as your facial features.

At Dental Concepts, we take the time to create bespoke veneers that blend seamlessly with your smile, using our digital smile design technology. Whether you’re opting for porcelain veneers or composite veneers, the goal is always to achieve a result that looks and feels natural, because who doesn’t want that?
