Each one is a very thin shell of porcelain, one that we attach to the front facing side of a tooth. When in place, this restoration instantly corrects the shape and color of the tooth, so we can address multiple cosmetic issues at once. For example, our team will mask permanent teeth stains that could resist traditional whitening methods. We could fill gaps and black triangle spaces between the teeth. Placement could lengthen worn down teeth and we can address damaged or misshapen teeth too. For some, we could even correct the appearance of minor misalignment to offer a straighter-looking smile. For others, this is a smile makeover in only two visits!
To create and place them, we start by numbing the tooth so we can gently remove a thin layer of outer enamel to make room for your new restoration and ensure a proper fit. We then take detailed digital images and measurements of the teeth and use them in a lab setting to design and craft your custom veneers. When the restoration is ready, we will attach it to the tooth with a powerful bonding agent. The porcine material is translucent like enamel, and we can color match it to blend with the rest of your smile. You then lave our office with a stunning smile!
To keep them bright and in place for years to come, you need to practice good oral hygiene. This keeps them bright and also safeguards the tooth we have attached the restoration to. You should brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes and floss very evening. Try to reduce your consultation of sugar and starch, and find time to see our team for a checkup and cleaning, which safeguards your veneers and your natural teeth too.
