Saved a photo of a smile you admire? Shaughnessy Park residents are welcome to bring it to our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg, where we can discuss what it would mean for your own teeth.
Let's find a time
Before-and-after videos make veneers look like a quick transformation. They rarely show the enamel discussion, the bite records or the years of upkeep. Lighting, filters and editing can also make it hard to judge what a result truly looks like.
None of this makes your interest misguided. Pictures can be a handy way to explain what you like. For someone in Shaughnessy Park, the next useful step is an in-person assessment at our Winnipeg clinic, where the question shifts from someone else’s teeth to yours.

A picture can show the style you like faster than a description could.
Lip movement and facial proportions affect how any tooth shape appears on you.
A restoration is a long-term decision, and fashions in smiles tend to move on.
A photo shows a surface at one instant. Your dentist has to consider what is happening beneath and around that surface, and how it would carry over to your own mouth.
A saved image is useful for communicating preferences, so long as everyone treats it as a guide.
Whether that look could suit you depends on details no one can judge from an image of someone else.
A result should be designed around your own face and bite, so a close copy of another person’s smile is not a sensible goal.
Your reference pictures can be part of the discussion at the outset. From there, the work turns to records and design decisions specific to you.
Request your visitShow us what appeals to you and point out exactly what you like in each picture, whether that is shape, colour or evenness.
Your enamel, gums and bite are examined to find out which of those ideas could work for you.
Photos of your own smile, along with scans, shade notes and bite information, may replace the borrowed images as the working reference.
A digital or model preview can show proposed proportions on your teeth, giving you a more honest comparison than any screenshot.
Enamel work follows only what your chosen design needs, and then the fit, shade and contact points are checked before bonding.
A short, focused selection is more helpful than a long scroll. Try to choose images where teeth seem natural and the lighting looks ordinary, so the conversation stays grounded.
It is useful to bring a picture of a smile you do not want, because it shows your limits.
A teal treatment chair, and the desk in our consultation room.
You will not be mocked for something you saw on social media. If a claim sounds too good, or an image has made you doubt your own smile, that is a fair thing to talk about openly.
Ask directly about anything advertised online as quick, painless or requiring no tooth changes.
Let us know whether you want a noticeable change or would rather nobody could tell.
Seeing your own preview may shift what you want, and adjusting direction is part of planning.
After the highlight reel
A veneer needs looking after long after anyone has stopped filming. Knowing what that involves is part of making a clear decision.
Teeth left untreated can shift in shade over time, which may affect how well they match your veneers.
Composite can stain or lose its polish, and porcelain may chip. Your dentist can explain how each would be handled.
Regular visits remain important, since the tooth under a veneer can still develop problems along its margin.
If something looks or feels different after treatment, a quick phone call beats searching online.

Helpful details about veneers in Shaughnessy Park.
Ask our teamA picture can guide the discussion, but your tooth position, bite, enamel and facial proportions all differ from those of the person shown. The design would be planned for you, so an exact copy is not the aim.
Many veneers need some enamel preparation, and the amount varies with position, material and design. Minimal preparation is not the same as reversible, so ask what would be proposed in your case.
A shade that is too bright for the person, or added thickness with too little room, can create an artificial look. Previewing the shape and controlling preparation are meant to help avoid that.
Composite is resin layered and sculpted directly onto the tooth, while porcelain is made outside the mouth. Posts do not always say which one is shown, so ask how each would behave on your teeth.
Shade is chosen in planning, and your dentist can talk through how bright a colour would look against your face and neighbouring teeth. Lighting and editing can also make teeth in videos appear brighter than they are.
Request a consultation on this page or phone (204) 338-3003, then bring the pictures along to your appointment. The clinic will contact you to set up a time at McPhillips Street.
