Cover It Up With Porcelain Veneers<\/span><\/h3>\n

The idea behind porcelain veneers is simple. Dental imperfections? Let\u2019s just… <\/span>cover them up<\/span><\/i>. Porcelain veneers are thin coverings that are affixed to the surface of the teeth that show when you smile. They\u2019re made up of multiple sheets of dental porcelain, a material that looks, acts, and feels just like natural tooth enamel. One of the only differences is that porcelain doesn\u2019t stain at the same rate as your natural teeth, so your smile stays bright white from day one of the veneer application. <\/span><\/p>\n

From chips and cracks to stains, minor misalignments, and misshapen teeth, dental veneers can hide just about any cosmetic imperfection. People with problems affecting the form <\/span>and<\/span><\/i> function of a tooth, however, may best be served by a <\/span>dental crown<\/span><\/a>. Crowns are a restorative treatment that are used for decayed, worn, or broken teeth. Your dentist can help you understand which is best for your smile.<\/span><\/p>\n

Procedure for Porcelain Veneers<\/span><\/h3>\n

The procedure for dental veneers is completed in just two visits to your dentist\u2019s office. Bring photos of smiles you admire to help your dentist understand the look you\u2019re going for. In general, teeth look best when their shade matches the whites of your eyes. We can provide advice based on your facial structure and coloring, but you get the final say in the size and shade of your porcelain veneers. <\/span><\/p>\n

Once a treatment plan has been put in place, your dentist prepares your teeth for their veneers. This process involves removing a bit of enamel from the surface of each tooth — just a few millimeters to make room for the veneers. An impression is taken and your veneers are created in a separate lab. You\u2019ll come back for their final placement and your new smile reveal\u2026 it\u2019s our favorite part! <\/span><\/p>\n

Caring For Your New Veneers<\/span><\/h3>\n

Dental veneers can last for many years with proper care. Brush your teeth with the same non-abrasive toothpaste you\u2019re already using on your natural teeth, and make sure you floss at least daily. While decay cannot form on dental porcelain, it\u2019s important that you keep surrounding teeth and gums healthy. Visit your dentist as recommended for continued oral and dental health. <\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking of dental appointments, you\u2019ll have a follow-up visit scheduled soon after the placement of your veneers. Make sure you don\u2019t skip this appointment! Your dentist will check to make sure everything looks right with your veneers, and that there aren\u2019t any problems with the veneers and the gums. The follow-up visit is an important part of successful dental veneers. <\/span><\/p>\n
