Porcelain
Veneers

Dr William Zafiropoulos is dedicated to offering the finest custom made porcelain veneers. Our porcelain veneers are crafted and designed by Dr William Zafiropoulos working intimately with a team of highly experienced master dental technicians. Our porcelain veneers will provide you with a permanent solution that looks and feels like natural teeth.

We use the most cutting edge technology – in collaboration with our unparalleled experience and attention to the finest details, you can expect excellent results with our porcelain veneers. The difference? If you’re looking for natural looking porcelain veneers, we’re able to confidently colour match your veneers to your natural teeth. If you’re after a lighter shade, we can create your veneers in a brighter shade that still appears entirely natural.

Imagine straighter, whiter and brighter teeth, that are strong and durable while looking and feeling natural. Smile with radiant confidence with the peace of mind that comes with our exclusive 10 year guarantee.

• Permanently stained or discoloured teeth
• Uneven or crooked teeth
• Broken, worn down or chipped teeth
• Diastemas (spaces between the teeth)
• Misshapen or poorly formed teeth
• Single missing teeth- veneers in conjunction with dental bridgework

Dr William Zafiropoulos has developed over the last 25 years, his own unique 3D visualisation technique. This involves using the latest i-Tero element scanner to help us design a template that can showcase the potential results of porcelain veneers. These scans allows the doctor to design a precision mock up which is made of a mouldable plastic called composite resin. This mock up is placed onto your teeth and is easily removed by your dentist.

Dr Wiliam Zafiropoulos considers the 3D visualisation to be an essential component of the smile design process. This procedure will allow for the patient to deliver valuable input into the smile design process. In essence we collaborate with the patient to deliver the ultimate results. You will receive photographs of your 3D visualisation via email. You will notice below that this step gives a good indication of how the final results will appear- however the final results are far superior.

In this way we can custom design porcelain veneers with your input, creating veneers that are ideally crafted, to your exact specifications.

You will notice the lower teeth have not been veneered, rather they have been whitened (using Zoom LED) and tidied using “Odontoplasty” to make the teeth look more your youthful. You will notice how real the veneers appear and how well they match the appearance of the natural lower teeth.

We’re committed to understanding exactly what you want to accomplish, which is why our team tailor a cosmetic dentistry treatment plan specifically to your requirements . Porcelain veneers can be crafted with your needs and dental desires in mind, to balance out your smile and create a complete transformation. Our team have been placing porcelain veneers in Sydney for over 20 years and are highly experienced in creating beautiful smiles.

Our current practice is to use the award winning latest E-max technology from Germany which is a layering ceramic that gives a natural opalescence to veneers through true to nature light scattering and a balanced relationship between light and chroma. The wear and gloss characteristics of porcelain veneers are similar to traditional feldspathic veneers; however, the strength of E-max veneers enables us to give you a 10-year guarantee. In select cases we can still offer feldspathic veneers together with a 10 year guarantee.

At your initial consultation, your cosmetic dentist will assess your smile and take necessary photographs and laser scans of your teeth to enable Dr Zafiropoulos to conduct a smile assessment. At your next visit a 3D visualisation is presented to you. We use this service to help you visualise your new smile and show you the outstanding results we can help you achieve. This visit is usually 30 minutes in duration.

After smile design is complete, Dr Zafiropoulos will proceed with your “veneer preparation” appointment, where we take the final records of your teeth. These records are then sent to our dental laboratory for the custom fabrication of your porcelain veneers. You leave our clinic with temporary veneers in place on your teeth-these are a copy of your final veneers as proposed.

Your next visit is for “veneer issue”, this visit is 2 weeks after your “veneer preparation” visit. It is a visit where we “try in” your porcelain veneers to confirm that you like them, and once you are are satisfied, we bond the porcelain veneers onto your teeth permanently. So when you leave our cosmetic dentistry clinic you will be ready to smile with confidence.

There are further short visits for minor adjustments and for final photographs of your new porcelain veneers and your new smile. After that you will require regular examinations and cleaning as recommended by your cosmetic dentist.
