If you’ve been looking for a way to hide your dental imperfections, dental veneers might just be the treatment you are looking for.
What are Dental Veneers?
Veneers are an esthetic dental restoration in which a porcelain covering is placed over the outside (visible area) of the tooth. Veneers are usually only done to the part of the teeth visible when talking or smiling.
A veneer treatment usually involves two appointments because the veneers will be fabricated at a dental laboratory. At the first appointment, the teeth are prepared, impressions are taken, and temporary covering is given.
In two to three weeks, the veneers return from the laboratory, the temporaries are removed, and the veneers bonded to the teeth. Laboratory-fabricated veneers are usually made using porcelain or pressed ceramic and are very esthetic.
Benefits of Porcelain Veneers
Each porcelain laminate is a work of art, carefully crafted in a laboratory to fit your smile. In the hands of highly skilled cosmetic dentists like Dr. Smallberg and Dr. Satornino, porcelain laminates can give you an incredibly natural, beautiful smile. They are virtually undetectable and can dramatically improve your appearance.
The advantage of veneers versus crowns is that much less tooth material is removed, and the procedure is generally less uncomfortable. Veneers are recommended for specific situations. Unlike most dental offices, our office will do a full occlusal (bite) evaluation before planning your veneers. This minimizes any future functional problems (chipping, veneers popping off).
Who Can Benefit from Veneers?
Many patients can benefit from dental veneers, including those with:
- discolored or badly stained teeth
- broken, crooked, or misshapen teeth
- wide or unequal gaps between teeth
- mild to moderate problems with crowding
- weak or damaged teeth caused by decay
Porcelain veneers are also tough and stain-resistant, so they are best for people who usually worry about how certain drinks or foods will harm their teeth. They are usually coated with resin to help keep them stain-resistant.
