Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin casings of ceramic that are bonded to the front of the patients’ teeth to create a new smile. Porcelain veneers are placed on teeth that appear too small or large, slightly discolored, or simply are not cosmetically pleasing to the patient. Veneers are great for patients having chipped, discolored and misaligned teeth.
When placing porcelain veneers, we pay close attention to the patients surrounding teeth and design each veneer to complement the overall smile. The result is a beautiful, attractive new smile.
If cared for properly, your veneers can last a good while. We ensure that your new veneers are constructed of the most durable porcelain materials available.
Procedure
The procedure begins with the preparation of the tooth. This entails removing the discolored or unsightly portion of the tooth and meticulously shaping the tooth in preparation for the new veneer. Once we have shaped the tooth, we will take an impression. This impression will be sent to our lab where your new restoration will be crafted. While the new veneers are created, we may provide you with a temporary restoration. Our temporary restorations will resemble your natural teeth so that you can continue with your daily life without worrying about a missing or incompatible tooth.
During your second visit to the office, we will proceed with the placement of your final restoration. The veneers will be fitted comfortably into the mouth. We will make every effort to ensure that the new tooth feels natural. The final step in the process will be to bond the new veneers into your mouth, leaving you with a beautifully restored smile.
