VENEERS

When it comes to changing the look of your smile, there are different types of dental treatment options. The dentist will examine and find out the appropriate treatment for the dental issue you have. There is a popular option to enhance the whole look of your smile, i.e., dental veneers.

What are dental veneers?

Dental veneers are thin shell-like porcelain translucent laminates that are bonded onto the natural teeth to enhance the whole structure of the teeth. They aren’t just used for cosmetic purpose but are also used for the following purposes:

Replace composite bonding
Fix crowding issues
Improve the shape of the teeth
Lengthen small or misshapen teeth
Whiten too discolored teeth
Fill gaps between teeth
Cover chipped or worn teeth

What is the procedure involved?

It usually takes about two appointments to bond veneers to the teeth. During the first appointment, we will conduct a thorough examination to check for any underlying gum disease or other oral health issues. After the checkup, we will shape and roughen your teeth to place the bonding agent. Our dentist will take impressions of the natural teeth to create customized veneers.

When the veneers get ready, you will have to come for another appointment, where we will polish and clean your teeth. Our dentist will then apply an adhesive and adhere the customized veneers to your teeth. We will use a high-intensity light to harden the adhesive. This will help veneers stay secure in their place.
