Veneers: A New Reason to Smile
Ask our Manly West dentist about custom dental veneers when you’re ready for a stunning smile makeover. Veneers are thin porcelain restorations that are bonded to the visible surfaces of your front teeth to alter their appearance when you smile or laugh.
They’re a good option for reducing the appearance of issues like:
- Chipped or uneven teeth
- Discoloration and staining
- Crooked or crowded teeth
What to Expect During Treatment
Dental veneers are normally applied over the course of two weeks in a series of sessions. We’ll start making your permanent veneers after your teeth have been prepped and your wax up model has been approved. In the meantime, you’ll wear temporary veneers to reduce sensitivity. We’ll firmly glue the porcelain restorations to the front of your teeth after they’re finished. Use caution when opening packages or biting into anything hard, such as ice, with your veneers. Although they’re strong, the porcelain can still chip if you don’t look out for them.
Consider purchasing a protective biting splint to wear at night if you grind or clench your teeth. Although veneers are stain resistant, they can nevertheless pick up surface stains from tea or coffee. Brush and floss your new smile as you would your natural teeth on a regular basis, and visit your dentist every six months for a checkup.
