What Are Porcelain Veneers?
As the name implies, veneers are a thin layer of porcelain that are bonded to the surface of your teeth, giving them a brighter and more even appearance. Veneers are incredibly customizable, and your dentist will first go over your individual needs during a consultation and craft the perfect plan for you so that you can have a natural-looking solution.
Who Qualifies for Dental Veneers?
Veneers are perfect for those who have chips, gaps, and cracks on or between their teeth, teeth that are different shapes, misaligned teeth, or stained and discolored teeth. It’s important to note that veneers are permanent, and your dentist will have to partially remove your teeth (usually by shaving them down) in order to bond your veneers.
Veneer Procedure
After your initial consultation, your dentist will then shave down the teeth that are getting veneers. Depending on your needs, you may need some mild anesthesia during this part of the procedure. After your teeth are prepped, your dentist will take impressions of them in order to create your veneers. It should take a couple of weeks for your veneers to be ready, and you may go home with temporary ones in the meantime. Once your permanent veneers are ready, you’ll head back over to your dentist’s office and get them bonded to your teeth. You should schedule a follow-up with your dentist a week after your procedure, but once you receive your final veneers, you can go back to your normal oral health care routine.
