What veneers are:
Veneers are shells that are custom-made to cover the fronts of your teeth. We use porcelain as it is the closest material to dental enamel and will leave you with a natural looking smile!
The procedure:
- A small amount of enamel is removed from the surface. This makes room for the shell to fit over your tooth. We will use a local anesthetic for this step.
- Dental impressions are made. The impressions are sent to a dental laboratory so that the veneers can be created to match your teeth in both shape and shade.
- At your next appointment, the veneers will be compared to your teeth and fitted to ensure the best look possible.
- The teeth being treated are cleaned and polished. We will etch them to ensure a strong bond.
- The veneer is then cemented on and the final fit is evaluated.
- The dentist polishes the veneers.
