What Are Dental Veneers?
In dentistry, a veneer is a thin layer of material that closely matches the appearance of natural tooth enamel. (Porcelain is a popular choice for making veneers partly thanks to its ability to resist stains.) Once a veneer is attached to the front of your tooth, it can completely hide a wide range of aesthetic imperfections, such as:
- Small gaps between the teeth.
- Discolored spots that won’t go away even with professional whitening.
- Chipped or cracked enamel.
- Teeth that are worn down, misshapen, or unusually small.
Veneers can be a great choice for anyone who has more than one type of cosmetic dental issue that they want to correct. The exact number of veneers that you need depends on the improvements that you have in mind.
The Process of Getting Veneers
The first step is for you to visit our office for a cosmetic dentistry consultation. We’ll take a look at your smile and ask about the changes that you have in mind. Once we know what your goals are, we can determine whether veneers are a good fit for you.
If you choose to have veneers placed, you should know that the process typically requires two appointments. During the first, enamel is taken off your teeth to create enough room for the veneers. We’ll take impressions of your prepared smile, then give you temporary veneers to protect your teeth. Your permanent veneers will be made at a separate laboratory; this normally takes around two weeks.
When your veneers are ready, you’ll come back to our office. The temporary veneers will be removed so that the permanent versions can be attached. Our team will check your smile carefully to confirm that the veneers fit as they should.
The Benefits of Veneers
Why do so many patients turn to veneers to improve their grins? Below are some of the top reasons:
- Veneers allow you to make multiple cosmetic improvements to your smile with just one treatment.
- Veneers are very natural-looking; once they have been appropriately shaded, they will be virtually indistinguishable from your other teeth.
- Veneers are quite durable. A well-cared-for veneer can often last for a decade or more.
