Enhance Your Smile with Veneers

If you're looking to improve the appearance of your less-than-perfect teeth, dental veneers are an excellent choice. These custom-made, thin coverings are seamlessly attached to the front of your teeth, resulting in a natural and attractive look. Veneers are highly effective at hiding imperfections such as misshapen teeth, small chips, enamel defects, stains, and small gaps. They can also help with minor alignment issues. One major advantage of veneers is that they require minimal alteration of your natural tooth and provide long-lasting results. Furthermore, their thin design preserves the maximum amount of natural tooth structure and is gentle on the gums.

What can you anticipate when getting veneers?

Initial appointment and therapy session

Before proceeding with the dental veneers, we will schedule a consultation to evaluate your dental health, oral function, and desired smile appearance. We will also discuss your smile goals and treatment expectations. It is crucial to address any periodontal problems or tooth decay in the relevant teeth before moving forward with the creation of your new veneers. However, the veneer procedure itself is quick and efficient.

Getting teeth ready and creating dental impressions

The extent of tooth preparation needed for porcelain veneers may differ based on the specific case and type of veneer. Nevertheless, the objective is to minimize the removal of tooth structure from the front and sides while ensuring a natural and robust look. Once the teeth are prepared, an impression is taken, and a porcelain shade is selected. The dental laboratory then crafts the custom-made veneers. Meanwhile, temporary veneer facings are applied to protect the teeth until the permanent ones are available.

Adjusting and placing

After your veneers have been prepared, it is crucial to verify their fit, size, shade, and shape. Prior to attaching them to your teeth, necessary modifications will be made to ensure an accurate fit and the most pleasing appearance. We will also ensure that you are content with the look of your new smile. Once the veneers are fitted and approved, the corresponding teeth will be cleaned and the veneers will be permanently bonded using composite resin cement. If any further adjustments or minor enhancements are required, they will be carried out after the placement.
