Core Dental Group: Complete Guide to Porcelain Veneers at Core Dental Wyndham

Wyndham's growing community now has access to premium porcelain veneer treatment at Core Dental Wyndham. As part of Core Dental Group, we offer residents of Point Cook, Hoppers Crossing, Werribee, and Tarneit comprehensive veneer packages with digital scanning, a trial smile, in-house lab support, and clear upfront pricing. This is your complete guide to porcelain veneers at Core Dental Wyndham.

What are porcelain veneers?

A porcelain veneer is a thin, custom-fabricated shell of dental porcelain, bonded permanently to the front surface of a tooth. Veneers can change the shape, colour, size, and alignment of your teeth in as few as two appointments, which is why they remain one of the most effective options in cosmetic dentistry.

At Core Dental Wyndham, veneers are available individually ($1,650 per veneer) or as part of three fully inclusive smile packages that offer genuine savings and a complete clinical experience, from diagnosis and trial smile through to professional whitening and a custom night splint.

Our porcelain veneer packages

Every Core Dental Group veneer package includes the same comprehensive set of clinical services and diagnostics. What changes between packages is the number of teeth treated.

Ideal Package — 6 veneers for $7,990 (save $1,285)

The Ideal Package covers the six most visible upper front teeth. These six teeth do most of the aesthetic work in a natural smile, so transforming them creates an immediately noticeable difference. This package suits patients who want a beautiful result focused on the central smile zone.

Every Ideal Package includes: 6 custom porcelain veneers, 3D iTero digital scan, resin reveal trial smile (diagnostic wax-up), comprehensive dental examination, bitewing X-rays, panoramic OPG X-ray, professional scale, clean and polish, Zoom in-chair whitening, and a custom-fitted night splint.

Elite Package — 8 veneers for $9,990 (save $1,585)

The Elite Package extends treatment to eight veneers across the full smile zone. This is our most popular option for patients who want a harmonious, complete result — every tooth visible in a natural, relaxed smile. If the Ideal Package feels like it might leave teeth visible at the edges, the Elite Package resolves that.

Every Elite Package includes: 8 custom porcelain veneers, plus all the same inclusions as the Ideal Package.

Ultimate Package — 10 veneers for $11,990 (save $1,885)

The Ultimate Package covers ten veneers, including the canines and first premolars, for the widest smile transformation possible. This is the choice for patients who want a full, confident smile that looks great from every angle.

Every Ultimate Package includes: 10 custom porcelain veneers, plus all the same inclusions as the Ideal and Elite packages.

Individual veneers — $1,650 each

For patients who only need one or two veneers, for example to match an existing smile after a chip or accident, we offer individual veneers at $1,650 per tooth.

What every package includes — and why it matters

3D iTero digital scan + resin reveal trial smile ($800 value)

The iTero intraoral scanner captures a precise 3D digital impression of your teeth without traditional impression materials. No gagging, no mess, no distortion. The digital files go directly to the laboratory.

The resin reveal, also called a diagnostic wax-up or mock-up, is a physical trial smile placed on your teeth before any preparation takes place. Using temporary resin material, your dentist shows you what your planned veneers will look like in your mouth. You can see the shape, size, length, and aesthetic result and give feedback before anything irreversible happens.

Not every practice includes this step. At Core Dental Wyndham, it's included in every package, because you should approve your result before treatment begins.

Comprehensive dental examination + bitewing X-rays ($350 value)

A thorough dental examination before cosmetic work ensures all underlying health issues are identified and addressed first. Bitewing X-rays check for decay between teeth and changes in supporting bone that aren't visible clinically.

Panoramic OPG X-ray ($200 value)

A full-mouth panoramic X-ray gives your dentist an overview of all teeth, roots, jaw structures, and surrounding bone, providing a complete clinical picture before treatment begins.

Professional scale, clean, and polish ($250 value)

A thorough professional clean removes calculus and surface staining, sets a clean baseline for shade selection, and ensures gum health before restorations are placed. Veneers bonded to clean, healthy teeth form a better, more durable bond.

Zoom in-chair whitening ($600 value)

Professional whitening is done before veneer placement because the shade of your natural teeth directly influences the shade chosen for your veneers. Whitening first means we can match veneers to the brightest possible baseline, producing the most natural-looking final result.

Custom-fitted night splint ($500 value)

A night splint is made after veneer placement to protect your investment. Many patients grind or clench their teeth during sleep without realising it. A custom-fitted night splint distributes occlusal forces across all teeth, protecting your veneers from the wear and fracture that bruxism can cause over time.

The veneer process at Core Dental Wyndham

Appointment 1 — Consultation, scan, and trial smile

Your cosmetic dentist takes a full dental and medical history, assesses your dental health, and discusses your smile goals in detail. An iTero scan is taken and your initial smile design is developed. Photographs are taken. The resin reveal trial smile is placed on your teeth for your review and approval.

Appointment 2 — Preparation and temporary veneers

A small, precise amount of enamel is removed from each tooth to create space for the veneer, typically 0.3 to 0.7 mm. Temporary veneers are placed while your permanent veneers are fabricated by the laboratory.

Appointment 3 — Veneer placement and night splint

Your custom porcelain veneers are permanently bonded to your teeth. Adjustments are made for fit, bite, and aesthetics. At this appointment, or shortly after, your custom night splint is also fitted.

Technology at Core Dental Wyndham

iTero intraoral scanners — Core Dental Group practices use iTero intraoral scanners for digital impressions that are more accurate, faster, and more comfortable than traditional impression trays. Digital files transmit directly to the laboratory, eliminating transport delays and the risk of impression distortion.

3D printing — 3D printers allow us to produce diagnostic models, surgical guides, and provisional restorations with precision and speed. 3D-printed study models are used during the veneer design phase to refine smile designs before they are communicated to the ceramist.

In-house Smile Lab — Core Dental Group works with a dedicated ceramic laboratory, with ceramists working closely with the clinical team to match the shade, shape, and surface texture of every veneer to the highest standard.

Same Day Porcelain Veneers™ and complex cases

Core Dental Group's specialist network includes access to a world-first process for delivering permanent custom porcelain veneers in a single appointment, Same Day Porcelain Veneers™. This technology is available at the Collins Street Specialist Centre, where specialist prosthodontist Greg Karabasis leads the Smile Lab.

For patients at Core Dental Wyndham with particularly complex cosmetic requirements, such as full-mouth rehabilitation, combined implant and veneer cases, or cases requiring specialist prosthodontic planning, we can arrange a referral to the Collins Street centre. That referral pathway is one of the real advantages of being part of Core Dental Group: access to the full depth of clinical expertise behind our brand.

Standard porcelain veneer cases are handled entirely at Core Dental Wyndham in the standard two-to-three appointment process.

How long do porcelain veneers last?

With proper care, porcelain veneers last between 10 and 20 years, and often longer. Longevity comes down to daily oral hygiene, wearing your night splint if you grind, attending regular check-ups, and avoiding habits that stress the porcelain, such as biting nails, opening packaging with your teeth, or chewing ice.

Porcelain veneers don't stain or discolour the way natural teeth or composite resin do. The natural teeth surrounding your veneers will continue to yellow over time, though, so periodic whitening treatments help keep the overall appearance consistent.

Veneer aftercare at a glance

• Brush gently twice daily with an electric toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste
• Floss daily around the veneer margins
• Wear your custom night splint every night if you grind
• Avoid biting hard foods (ice, nuts, hard lollies, crusty bread) directly with veneered teeth
• Top up your whitening periodically to keep natural teeth matching your veneers
• Attend six-monthly check-ups and professional cleans
• Wear a sports mouthguard during contact sport
