Dental veneers are a popular treatment used to change the appearance of your smile. They can be used to correct a number of dental issues and are custom-made to look just like your natural teeth.
Dental veneers are thin layers of porcelain bonded to teeth to cover imperfections and transform your smile. They are custom-made for each patient’s needs and are color-matched to your natural teeth so that they blend in seamlessly.
Veneers are often used to fix a variety of common dental imperfections.
Discolored teeth or stained teeth
Chipped or broken teeth
Crooked teeth
Worn down teeth
Oddly shaped or uneven teeth
Teeth with uneven spacing
The veneer procedure is usually completed in 3 visits – Consultation, Preparation, and Placement.
During the consultation visit, we will discuss your goals and concerns about your smile. We will discuss the desired size, shape, and color of your veneers and finalize your treatment plan.
After we finalize your treatment plan, we will start the veneer process and prepare your tooth. This involves removing minimal natural tooth enamel so that the veneer can be bonded to your tooth structure. We will then take an impression of your teeth to make a mold of your mouth to create your custom veneer. While waiting on your permanent veneer, we will place a temporary one to protect the tooth.
The creation of your custom veneer can take roughly two weeks. You will return to our office when it is ready, and we will remove the temporary veneer. We will then place your permanent custom-made veneer, and it will be bonded with dental cement.
No, dental veneers require the same oral health care routine that your natural teeth do. You should always brush and floss your veneers and teeth and get regular dental checkups.
Your veneers will last anywhere from 10 years to 20 years with proper care. The lifespan of your veneers will depend on proper oral hygiene and regular checkups.
No. Dental veneers are considered elective procedures and are usually not covered under most dental plans. But, if you are getting veneers due to a medical problem or injury, dental insurance may cover a portion of the cost.
No, porcelain is very durable and resistant to staining. They are ideal due to their ability to stay stain free for the life of your veneers.
