If you have multiple cosmetic issues you’d like to correct, dental veneers may be the solution you’ve been looking for.
Veneers conceal a wide range of cosmetic issues, including:
- Short and worn teeth
- Discoloured and stained teeth
- Unusual spacing between teeth
- Misshapen teeth
- Gummy smiles
Your dentist near Blue Mountains will evaluate your case to determine how dental veneers can help transform your smile and whether you’re a candidate for treatment.
You can use veneers on their own or pair them with other cosmetic dentistry options, such as teeth whitening, tooth replacement and more.
Porcelain Veneers Near Leura: A Step-by-Step Guide
STEP 1: Your Consultation
Your consultation includes a comprehensive exam, potential x-rays and a conversation with your dentist. This appointment lets us determine whether you’re a candidate for veneers, whether you’ll need pretreatment first, or whether we should recommend an alternative treatment.
Pretreatments may include gum and cavity care, and alternative treatments, such as dental crowns, may be the better option.
Your dentist also takes time to answer your questions and address your concerns.
STEP 2: Tooth Prep and Impressions
If you proceed with dental veneers, we prepare the teeth you’d like treated and take impressions for fabrication of the veneers.
Your dentist always ensures your veneers match neighbouring teeth and look natural in your mouth.
STEP 3: Veneer Placement
Veneer placement means making final adjustments to the shade and fit of your restorations before cementing them over the teeth.
Dental Veneer Considerations and Aftercare
Because your dentist removes a bit of enamel during tooth preparation, it’s vital to consider your veneers permanent. In other words, if you lose or damage a veneer, we must replace it to protect the underlying tooth.
Additionally, dental veneers are easy to maintain; you simply brush, floss and visit your dentist approximately every six months for checks and cleans. In other words, treat your veneers like your untreated teeth, and remember that care can contribute to veneer longevity.
Always consult our dental office if you have questions or concerns about your new smile.
It’s important to remember that all patients and situations differ, so your experience will differ from your neighbours'. Your dentist will let you know what to expect.
