What are Dental Veneers?
Veneers are thin, porcelain shells placed on the fronts of teeth, designed to hide nearly any smile flaw – stains, cracks, chips, misalignments, etc. Each one blends seamlessly with adjacent teeth to improve a smile’s overall appearance.
What makes veneers truly effective are their materials. Because the shells use porcelain or ceramic, dentists can tailor them to match a tooth’s color, size, and shape. The result is that your final veneers look lifelike and “fit in” very well with their surroundings. Also, they should last a fairly long time due to their stain resistance and durability.
The Process of Getting Veneers
In general, a veneer treatment only takes two dental visits. The first appointment prepares your teeth for the shells, while the second acts as the “final placement.”
Veneer “preparation” often occurs at the end of a consultation, with the treating dentist taking several steps. It first makes room for the final shells by removing bits of your enamel. Next, our team takes an impression of the prepped teeth and sends it to a dental lab. Lab workers will use this impression to craft your final veneers over a few weeks. While you wait for these permanent prosthetics, you’ll wear temporary ones.
Once the final veneers are ready, you’ll return for your second visit – the “final placement.” We’ll set your shells at that time and ensure everything is in proper order. After confirming your veneers fit your teeth, we’ll let you enjoy your improved smile!
(If you prefer a faster approach, you could also try our Lumineers. These veneers are made of ultra-thin porcelain, so they don’t require enamel removal. That means they can be placed in just one visit.)
