Porcelain Veneers
Serving Kanata, Stittsville and Ottawa, Ontario
Porcelain veneers, also known as dental veneers, are a procedure which allows Ottawa cosmetic dentist Dr. Ami Barakat to change the surface and appearance of your teeth in a completely natural-looking way. Porcelain veneers are very thin shells of porcelain which are affixed to the front and biting edge of your teeth to alter your tooth:
- Shape
- Size
- Colour
- Alignment

- Discoloured teeth

Porcelain Veneer Procedure
The porcelain veneer procedure is very similar regardless of which option you choose:
- Dr. Barakat prepares your teeth by removing a very thin layer of enamel
- We create an impression of your prepared teeth and send a design for the finished appearance to Classic Labs, our porcelain veneer provider that provides excellence in strength and esthetics
- You receive a set of temporary dental veneers which are completely functional
- When your porcelain veneers arrive from the lab, your temporary veneers are removed and your permanent veneers are placed on your teeth
The process is fairly simple, but more importantly, porcelain veneers can create an entirely new appearance for your smile. As a result, porcelain veneers are frequently an important component of a smile makeover.
