These are dental restorations that are designed purely to improve the overall beauty of your smile. These thin porcelain restorations cover the front and sides of the teeth, instantly reshaping the tooth and changing the color too. The porcelain material is very strong and can absorb daily bite forces and pressures, and also be shaded to blend with your smile. When in place, we can mask permanent teeth stains, correct misshapen teeth, lengthen worn down teeth, and even close gaps between them. Our team can also address minor damage and even correct the appearance of uneven teeth, so you have a straighter-looking smile without the need for braces or aligners. For some, this is a smile makeover in only two visits.
To begin, we will need to numb the tooth or teeth we are correcting, and then remove a thin layer of outer enamel, which makes room for your new restoration. Our team next takes detailed digital images and measurements of the prepared tooth, and will use this information in a lab setting to design and craft your veneers. When your custom restorations are ready, you return for a second visit so we can check the fit and if necessary, make some minor adjustments. Finally, we attach the completed option with a powerful bonding agent. With placement, we can transform the appearance of your smile!
Once your new cosmetic restorations are in place, you can take actions to help them stay bright and secure for years to come. You should brush and floss them as you would natural teeth, as preventing decay or gum disease can ensure the tooth supporting your veneers remains in place. Also, try to avoid tobacco products and consume less sugar and trach in your daily meals. Finally, we hope you will visit our team for a checkup and cleaning visit every six months, so we can monitor your smile and your new restorations for signs of trouble, keeping your smile healthy and strong, and your smile shining.
