Porcelain Veneers are a form of cosmetic dentistry in which a shell or layer of tooth-colored porcelain or composite is placed over the facial surfaces of your teeth to correct worn tooth enamel, uneven tooth alignment or spacing, discoloration and chips or cracks.

Types of Dental Veneers

Why Teeth Veneers?

Regardless of what causes unattractive teeth, dental veneers may solve most or even all of your cosmetic dental issues, including:

• Worn enamel: Over time, the thin, hard translucent substance covering your teeth (enamel) may become worn,and dulled.
• Discoloration: It may be natural or result from a genetic predisposition. However, it often results from consuming soft drinks, tea or coffee; smoking; using certain medications, etc.
• Wear and tear: Teeth naturally wear down as people age. Aged teeth are more likely to have chips, cracks or a generally uneven appearance.
• Genetics: Certain people are born with abnormal spacing between their teeth that widens with age.
• Uneven teeth: Uneven teeth can result from tooth grinding or general wear and tear.

The veneers could be your option to reach the goal of an aesthetic smile.

Dental Veneers Procedure

Dental Veneers treatment involving tooth preparation is irreversible, so it is important that you and dentist discuss any alternatives that provide the same results but with minimal to no removal of tooth structure. If you and dentist decide that veneers are the best option, the next step involves a thorough review of treatment details, including preparing your teeth for your specific veneer procedure and what will be necessary for them to look and fit correctly.

There are several steps in the dental veneer procedure. First, your dentist will likely administer a local anesthetic so you will be comfortable during tooth preparation and placement of the veneer. Your natural tooth is then prepared by minimally reshaping it with a small handheld rotational cutting device called a bur to provide the best fit. Burs come in various shapes and sizes and allow precise and minimal shaping of a tooth prior to veneer placement.

If your treatment involves direct composite resin veneers, dentist then will apply the appropriately shaded composite to your teeth, shape the material and harden it using a high intensity light. Additional layers of composite may be applied to build the veneer to the correct shape, length and form for your smile. When all composite is placed, the veneers will be finished and polished using burs and polishers to create a vital and lifelike smile.

If your treatment requires porcelain veneers, dentist will make an impression of your teeth from which a mold of your mouth will be made. This impression will be use for fabricating the veneers in dental lab.

During the veneer placement appointment, dentist will remove the temporaries and place your final veneers. Dentist also will evaluate and adjust the newly placed veneers to ensure the optimal fit and color.
