Veneers
What are Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. Veneers are typically made of porcelain or composite resin, and they can address a range of cosmetic concerns.
Dental veneers can enhance the appearance of teeth by improving their shape, size, color, and alignment. They can effectively address a range of cosmetic issues, such as stained or discolored teeth, chipped or worn-down teeth, gaps between teeth, and minor misalignments.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the treatment process for Veneers?
- The process of getting dental veneers usually involves several steps. First, a consultation with a dentist is scheduled to determine if veneers are suitable for your specific needs.
- Then, a small amount of enamel may be removed from the teeth receiving veneers to create space for the veneer placement.
- Next, the dentist takes impressions of your teeth, which are sent to a dental laboratory where the veneers are crafted to fit your teeth precisely.
- The color, shape, and size of the veneers are customized to achieve the desired outcome and match the surrounding teeth.
- During the final visit, the dentist prepares the teeth for veneer placement by cleaning, polishing, and etching the tooth surface.
- The veneers are then bonded to the teeth using a special dental adhesive.
- A curing light is used to harden the adhesive and secure the veneers in place.
