Veneers (Resin/Porcelain)
Veneers are a highly effective solution for enhancing the appearance of your teeth. These thin, custom-made shells are bonded to the front of your teeth to improve their shape, size, and colour. At Linden Park Tusmore, we offer both porcelain and composite resin veneers to address a variety of cosmetic concerns.
Why Choose Us
Composite Resin Veneers
Made from a tooth-coloured plastic material, composite resin veneers can be custom-matched to your natural or whitened teeth. Applied directly to the teeth, they are sculpted and polished to create a beautiful, seamless look. The major advantage of composite veneers is that they require little to no removal of tooth structure, and can be reversed if necessary. While they may chip or stain over time, composite veneers typically last between 3 to 7 years, depending on individual care and lifestyle.
Porcelain Veneers
For a more durable and aesthetically pleasing option, porcelain veneers offer superior strength and natural-looking results. Porcelain mimics the reflective qualities of natural tooth enamel, ensuring that your smile looks both radiant and lifelike. These veneers can be matched to any shade and are highly resistant to staining and wear. Additionally, porcelain veneers are designed to last much longer than composite resin—making them an excellent choice for those seeking a long-term solution. Thanks to CEREC technology, we are proud to offer same-day porcelain veneers, delivering fast, precise results without compromising on quality.
Whether you’re looking for a subtle enhancement or a complete smile makeover, veneers at Linden Park Tusmore Dental & Implants can help you achieve a flawless, natural-looking smile in no time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need regular check-up
Regular dental check-ups help avoid unexpected problems and costly surprises. Catching an issue early gives you more treatment options, while emergencies often prioritise pain relief over longer-term solutions. Addressing concerns early tends to mean treatment is more effective, less time-consuming and easier on your wallet.
I clean my teeth at home, why do I need a professional clean?
Even if you brush and floss daily, it’s vital for your overall health to have a professional clean every six months. Some people may need more frequent visits, especially if they are managing periodontal disease. When plaque remains on your teeth, it combines with saliva to harden into tartar or calculus. If left untreated, this can lead to bleeding gums, bad breath, a receding gum line, and eventually tooth mobility. Regular cleans and polishes not only give you a bright smile but also help prevent decay, gum disease, and bad breath.
Is fluoride effective?
Yes, fluoride is well established for strengthening teeth and reducing decay rates. It works by remineralising weakened enamel, helping reverse early signs of decay and reducing sensitivity. While fluoride toothpaste supports daily care, professionally applied fluoride treatments are more concentrated and offer additional protection. Our therapists and hygienists tailor fluoride treatments to your specific needs.
Why do I need x-rays?
Dental x-rays help detect issues that aren't visible to the naked eye, supporting early diagnosis and better oral health outcomes.
What are bitewing x-rays?
Taken on the sides of your mouth roughly every two years, bitewing x-rays help detect early decay between teeth, often allowing treatment before a filling becomes necessary.
How are OPG x-rays different?
An OPG x-ray provides a panoramic view of your teeth, jawbone, joints, and sinuses, ideal for monitoring wisdom teeth and other areas not visible with smaller x-rays. These are recommended every three years.
