Dental Veneers in Kanata

Transform your smile with custom dental veneers at MYsmile Dental in Kanata. Whether you're looking to fix chips, stains, gaps, or uneven teeth, veneers provide a long-lasting, natural-looking cosmetic solution tailored to your unique features and goals.

What Are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are ultra-thin shells, typically made of porcelain, that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. Veneers are used to improve the color, shape, size, and alignment of your smile with minimal alteration to your natural tooth structure.

Veneers are ideal for correcting:

  • Stained or discolored teeth

  • Chipped, cracked, or worn-down teeth

  • Small gaps or uneven spacing

  • Misshapen or slightly crooked teeth

  • Teeth that don't respond to whitening

At MYsmile Dental, our porcelain veneers are crafted to look just like natural enamel—translucent, smooth, and tailored to match your smile and facial symmetry.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are the gold standard in cosmetic dentistry due to their strength, durability, and ability to mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural teeth.

Benefits of porcelain veneers:

  • Stain-resistant surface

  • Long-lasting with proper care (10–15+ years)

  • Minimal preparation compared to crowns

  • Custom-shaded to blend seamlessly

  • Can transform your entire smile or just one tooth

We use digital smile design and precise lab fabrication to create veneers that are customized for your facial features and desired aesthetic.

What to Expect with Veneer Treatment

  1. Consultation & Smile Analysis
    We'll assess your smile, listen to your goals, and determine if veneers are right for you or if another option—like whitening or orthodontics—may be more appropriate.

  2. Tooth Preparation
    A small amount of enamel is gently removed to make space for the veneer. Digital impressions are taken for the lab.

  3. Temporary Veneers (if needed)
    Temporary veneers may be placed while your permanent ones are being crafted.

  4. Final Placement
    Once your veneers are ready, we bond them to your teeth and make minor adjustments for comfort and appearance.

  5. Follow-Up & Maintenance
    We'll check the fit and bite during a follow-up visit and give you care instructions to help your veneers last for years.

Veneer Restoration & Replacement

Already have veneers that are chipped, stained, or worn down? We offer veneer restoration and replacement for patients who want to refresh their existing cosmetic work.

We can help with:

  • Replacing old composite veneers with porcelain

  • Fixing chipped or cracked porcelain

  • Rebonding loose veneers

  • Matching single veneers to your natural teeth

If your veneers are 10+ years old or showing signs of wear, our team will assess whether repair or replacement is the best solution.

Am I a Candidate for Veneers?

You may be a good candidate for veneers if you:

  • Have healthy teeth and gums

  • Want a permanent solution to cosmetic flaws

  • Are not grinding your teeth excessively (or use a night guard)

  • Prefer not to undergo orthodontics or extensive restorative work

  • Have realistic expectations about cosmetic results

If you're unsure whether veneers, smile makeovers, or crowns are right for you, we'll walk you through your options during a comprehensive consultation.

Caring for Your Veneers

With proper care, your veneers can last a decade or more. We recommend:

  • Brushing and flossing daily (non-abrasive toothpaste)

  • Visiting us for regular dental exams and cleanings

  • Wearing a night guard or retainer if you clench or grind your teeth

  • Avoiding extremely hard foods (e.g., ice, hard candy)

  • Avoiding tobacco and dark-staining foods when possible
