How clear aligners help with your veneer and crown treatments
The quest for the perfect smile has never been easier, because dental treatment techniques, equipment, and materials are better than ever.
One of the most useful advances of recent times has been an improvement in how readily we can combine orthodontic and cosmetic treatments to achieve a better outcome – in this case, an even more impressive smile.
With the help of technology, we can complement the extensive experience of the team here at Middleborough Dental Care to offer patients a very accurate preview of how their new smile will look.
Crowns and veneers make a significant impact
Depending on what you would like to change about your smile and your expectations about the amount of work involved, we can understand that the prospect of getting crowns or veneers might take some time to process.
The fact is that dental veneers can be the simplest and most effective method of improving the overall look of your teeth.
Veneers are thin, tooth-coloured porcelain or glass/plastic layers fixed onto the front of your teeth. You might know someone with veneers without even knowing they have them!
At Middleborough Dental Care, we offer porcelain and direct composite veneers, which have a shorter application process and cost less than porcelain.
A custom-made crown will also improve the appearance of a tooth or teeth, with the added advantage that it improves the strength, durability, and stability of the tooth it’s applied to as well as the surrounding section of your bite.
Most importantly, we can be very specific about the right cosmetic dentistry procedures for each patient to ensure your smile turns out exactly as you envisaged.
Clear aligners can prepare your teeth for veneers
When a part of the appropriate procedure toward your new, improved smile is straightening teeth or reducing the gaps between them, clear aligners can play a crucial role.
Aligners are a tried-and-tested orthodontic treatment to correct crooked teeth in the most natural, stable way and with minimal maintenance.
Whether we use Suresmile or Invisalign, your clear aligners will be fitted specifically for your teeth and to suit the realignment required.
The combination of clear aligners and veneers means that we can usually keep the aligner treatment time shorter before fine-tuning the results with composite or porcelain veneers.
The total cost is as transparent as the aligners!
While we’re reluctant to say “Trust us, we’re dentists”, you can be assured that smile design technology enables us to be very accurate about the time required to complete your smile makeover, the materials, and the total cost, as well as what the resulting new smile will look like.
That means we can always provide a comprehensive quote outlining the cost of both aligners and veneers, so there are no hidden costs.
The Middleborough Dental Care team has completed numerous smile makeovers with this approach and our patients have been delighted with the excellent results.

We can show you how the realignment of your teeth and the closing of any gaps are taken care of by clear aligners. You’ll see how that lays the foundation for a great smile.
Then we’ll illustrate exactly how veneers step in and take the baton to get your smile to its finished look. The addition of veneers addresses any imperfections in colour and shape, while also putting the finishing touches to the even alignment.
