What are porcelain veneers?
Porcelain veneers, also known as dental veneers or porcelain tooth layers, are thin, half-millimeter porcelain shells bonded to the front of teeth to transform smiles. These veneers closely mimic the natural structure of teeth better than many other restoration materials, offering a hard, wear-resistant, and long-lasting solution. Dentists commonly use porcelain veneers to make cosmetic improvements for a variety of dental concerns, creating a beautiful, natural-looking smile.
Problems That Can Be Solved With Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are recommended because they can help you improve:
- Twisted or jagged teeth
- Teeth with shapes that are not proportional
- Yellow teeth that have darkened and cannot be whitened or bleached
- Teeth stained with tetracycline with gray spaces between teeth
- A worn-out tooth that makes you look old
- Sensitive and less sensitive teeth
- Bad bite that needs reconstruction
Benefits of Dental Veneers
Porcelain veneers blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, offering a natural-looking smile. They require minimal alteration to the tooth’s surface, making them a more conservative option compared to crowns. Veneers feel and function like natural teeth, allowing you to brush, floss, and maintain them with ease. Treatment typically takes a few days to three weeks, depending on the complexity of the procedure, leaving you with a smile that looks and feels effortlessly natural.
The Dental Veneer Process
Before beginning the veneer process, we carefully assess the condition of your teeth to determine if veneers are the best option according to your goals and specific needs. If you are a good candidate, we take impressions of your teeth. These impressions serve as a model for crafting veneers that are perfectly tailored to match the shape, color, and fit of the original teeth, ensuring a natural-looking result. This custom approach not only minimizes the number of visits but also ensures a seamless fit and finish.
After that, our expert dentist gently removes a small layer of enamel from the tooth surface to create a textured base for bonding. This preparation allows for a secure bond that holds the veneer in place, providing long-lasting durability. To attach the veneer, we use a high-quality dental adhesive, which is then cured with a special UV light to strengthen the bond. Any final adjustments are made to ensure the veneer blends harmoniously with the surrounding teeth. The entire procedure typically requires two visits, leaving you with a beautiful smile.
Caring for Your Veneers
The life of veneers is largely dependent on how they are used or maintained. Their care includes good hygiene, i.e. daily brushing with non-abrasive fluoride toothpaste. This helps reduce tooth decay, especially in parts of the tooth that are not veneered.
