Treatment Plan For Dental Patients
Your first visit will be for a full dental screening. This will include examination for oral cancer, gum health, jaw joints and muscles, and bite assessment, as well as a full dental examination. The consultation may include an examination using an intra-oral camera to show images from inside the mouth on the screen and/or a panoral radiograph. This will enable us to formulate a treatment plan for dental patients and discuss options for your oral health.
In more complicated cases, an additional appointment will be made to discuss the conditions present and the most satisfactory treatment alternatives. During this visit, appointments will be scheduled, estimated fees given and payment options discussed.

Smile makeovers in Haslemere
Porcelain veneers are a great catch-all solution for minor dental issues, but they are by no means the only solution. Sometimes just one treatment isn’t enough to achieve the results you’re looking for. If you’re in this situation, we can help you plan a complete smile makeover, combining a blend of different treatments and techniques – from orthodontics to implants and whitening. If you are unhappy with the overall appearance of your smile, but not sure where to begin, we’ll suggest an informal consultation during which we can establish exactly what you would like us to achieve with our cosmetic dentistry veneers, and put together a treatment plan to suit your needs, budget and lifestyle.

FAQs
How do veneers work?
To prepare your teeth for veneers, the dentist will file away a very thin layer of enamel, proportionate to the thickness of the veneers. This is usually carried out under a local anaesthetic. When your bespoke veneers are ready, the dentist will bond them in place using a special curing light, and finish by fine-tuning their look and shape by hand.
How long do veneers last?
Veneers can last between 10 and 15 years, though you will need to commit to maintaining a good oral hygiene regime. The life expectancy of veneers is always increasing as materials and techniques become ever more advanced.
Do veneers stain?
Veneers aren’t susceptible to staining the way your natural teeth are, because porcelain is not porous. However, some staining may appear over time at the margins, where the edges of the veneers meet your natural teeth.
Can I get veneers if I grind my teeth?
Your dentist will take this into consideration before recommending veneers, and may recommend a dental night guard, which will protect your veneers tooth wear.
What treatments does a smile makeover include?
A smile makeover is a completely bespoke treatment that could include any number of treatments available at Stricklands Dental Fitness Centre, from specialist orthodontics to cosmetic restorations, implants or whitening.
