Do you wish you could completely transform the appearance of your smile? Well, with porcelain veneers our team can do that, correcting a wide array of esthetic issues in only two visits using a single treatment option. In today’s blog, your Greenville, TX, dentist talks about porcelain veneers.
The Major Cosmetic Benefits of Porcelain Restorations
Each veneer is designed to cover the front and sides of a tooth, which enables us to instantly make major changes to the tooth. For example, our team reshapes malformed teeth or repairs minor damage. Placement can also correct unsightly gaps between the teeth. When we place veneers, we can mask permanent teeth stains that resists traditional teeth whitening treatments, and we can even offer a straighter-looking smile for those with minor misalignment, so you enjoy an even smile with braces or aligners. For some, this could provide a complete smile makeover in just two visits!
Creating and Placing Your Cosmetic Restorations
During the first visit, we will numb the tooth being treated and then gently remove a thin layer of outer enamel, which enables our team to make room for your veneer. We then take detailed digital images and measurements of the tooth. While you return home, we will use the information to design and craft your custom cosmetic restorations. When they’re ready, you will return so we can check the fit and if necessary, make some final adjustments. Our team then attaches them with a powerful bonding agent, the same we use to secure crowns and even bridges firmly in place. You now have a new smile, one that looks great and offers proper bite balance.
Keeping Them Stain-Free
You will want them to stay bright and last for years to come, so you need to keep your smile healthy and strong. Daily brushing and flossing, a healthy diet, and visits for checkups and cleanings enable us to fight issues like tooth decay and gum disease to keep your smile whole and your restorations bright. This also helps protect your untreated teeth too! If you have any questions about how we can use one or more porcelain veneers to transform the beauty of your smile, or if you want to see if these are right for you, then contact our team today to learn more. In addition to these restorations, we can also discuss teeth whitening, clear aligners, bonding and contouring, and lifelike restorations, like composite resin fillings and ceramic crowns.
