What are Veneers?

What are Veneers?

Are you dissatisfied with your smile because you have discolored, crooked or uneven teeth? Our dentist can solve these problems with porcelain veneers.

Veneers are thin shells typically made from porcelain or composite resin that are custom-made to cover the front surface of teeth. They are used to improve the appearance of teeth by addressing issues such as discoloration, unevenness, chips, or gaps. Veneers are bonded to the front of the teeth, providing a natural-looking and durable solution to enhance a smile's aesthetics.

Advantages of Veneers

Veneers are just one of many treatments we can suggest to improve the appearance of your teeth. Some of the advantages of veneers include:

  • Natural tooth-like appearance
  • Well-tolerated by gums.
  • Stain-resistant.
  • You choose the shade.
  • Strong and durable.
  • Can last 20 years or longer.
  • Require less shaping of the teeth than crowns.
Advantages of Veneers

For Whiter, Brighter Teeth

Sometimes, teeth can be resistant to whitening. Veneers solve this problem by covering dark, yellowed, or discolored teeth. With a brighter smile, you can feel more self-confident, attractive, and at ease in any situation, whether it is a job interview or a social event

For Straighter, More Even Teeth

If your teeth are slightly crooked or irregularly-shaped, dental veneers can give them a straighter, more even appearance. We can also make your teeth look longer if they are worn down or just naturally short.

Repairing Chipped or Broken Teeth

Teeth that are broken or chipped can make you feel old and ugly. With the veneers in place, you can finally look and feel your most young and attractive self.

Filling In Gaps

While a gap-toothed smile may be cute on a child, adults generally prefer a different appearance. Veneers offer an ideal solution by closing these gaps.

Veneer Basics

Veneers are wafer-thin shells that fit over the front surfaces of your teeth. Made of dental grade porcelain, they are tooth-colored and have the appearance of natural tooth enamel. Veneers are custom-made to fit your teeth and improve your smile.

Planning for Treatment

We conduct a comprehensive examination and discuss your ideas for enhancing your smile. Following this, we take x-rays and impressions. Our dentist then devises a detailed plan tailored to address your specific cosmetic concerns.

Preparing the Teeth

We may need to remove some of the enamel from your teeth to prepare them to accept the veneers. We adjust the shape of your teeth if necessary to ensure the veneers fit perfectly. Once our dentist completes the preparation, you are all set to get new veneers.

Custom-Fitting the Veneers

After the veneers are ready, we place them on the fronts of your teeth to check for fit. After attaching them using a light-sensitive adhesive, we shine a special light on the teeth to cure and bond them to your teeth.

Taking Care of Your Veneers

All you have to do to keep your veneers looking gorgeous year after year is to follow your daily oral hygiene routine as usual. Brush twice and floss once every day. Our dentist may also suggest you avoid hard or sticky foods.
