Did you know that nearly 50% of Australians avoid the dentist because they’re worried about pain? According to the Australian Dental Association, it’s a common concern—but it doesn’t have to be. If you’ve been thinking about getting veneers but are concerned about discomfort, let’s break it down and put your mind at ease.
Is the Veneer Procedure Painful?
In short: Nope! Getting veneers is generally not painful at all. At With U Dental, we go out of our way to make sure your experience is as comfortable as possible. While the process might involve a bit of preparation, we use local anaesthesia when needed so you won’t feel a thing. The amount of tooth we remove is minimal—you might feel a bit of pressure, but actual pain? That’s not something you need to worry about.
Here’s What to Expect During the Veneer Procedure
First, we sit down for a friendly chat about your smile goals. From there, here’s how it works:
- Preparation: A thin layer of your tooth’s surface is polished down to make space for your new veneer. Relax—it’s a small amount!
- Moulds and Design: Using cutting-edge digital scans, we create a blueprint for the perfect veneer that fits your tooth like a glove.
- Bonding: Finally, the veneer is bonded to your tooth using a special adhesive. We fine-tune everything to make sure it feels right and looks amazing.
What About After the Procedure?
After your veneers are fitted, some patients might feel a bit of sensitivity to hot and cold, but it’s nothing to stress about—it usually fades within a couple of days. If there’s any discomfort (and that’s a big ‘if’), it’s usually mild and easily handled with over-the-counter relief. Most of our patients leave with nothing but a big, bright smile, eager to show off their new look.
