About Dental Veneers
Porcelain veneers are an effective way of improving the appearance of your healthy smile. Veneers are thin layers of porcelain that are bonded over the front of your existing tooth, masking any discoloration, damage, or shape concerns. Unlike dental crowns or fillings, veneers serve a cosmetic purpose in that they only cover the front of the tooth. They simply alter a tooth’s appearance and what people see when you smile.
As a smile makeover treatment, two-visit dental veneers are best suited for people with:
The Typical Porcelain Veneer Process
Since veneers are a cosmetic procedure, the smile makeover process usually starts with a conversation about your goals and concerns. In most cases, we recommend placing between 6-10 veneers to cover the upper front teeth that are most apparent when you smile.
Prepping the tooth is quite simple. First, our Jericho cosmetic dentist smooths away a thin layer of enamel from the affected teeth, making room for the veneer.
Next, we will take molds of your teeth and send them to a lab to create your custom veneers. This can take several days, so we will provide temporary veneers to reduce sensitivity and improve your smile while you wait.
After about two weeks, we’ll remove the temporary veneers and install your new permanent porcelain veneers!
Caring For Your Jericho Porcelain Veneers
Veneers look and feel like natural teeth for the most part, and they do not require any special maintenance aside from daily home care. Simply brush and floss them to keep them clean. Just be sure to use non-abrasive toothpaste to avoid damaging your veneers.
That said, veneers are an investment that you want to protect. We recommend wearing a mouthguard when you sleep to prevent cracks or damage caused by grinding and clenching.
You can expect your porcelain veneers to last for many years with proper care and maintenance. In addition, the seemingly quick smile makeover provides you with years of confidence and an attractive smile you’ll feel proud of showing off.
