Veneers

What are veneers?

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted from tooth-colored materials, such as porcelain or composite resin. These ultra-thin covers fit over the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. 

Veneers are a popular cosmetic dentistry option for enhancing your teeth color, shape, size, or length. They last for several years with proper care and instantly enhance your smile’s appearance. 

How can veneers enhance my teeth?

Veneers can hide many imperfections in your smile, including:

• Tooth discoloration or stains
• Chipped or cracked teeth
• Uneven or irregular tooth shapes
• Gaps between teeth
• Minor misalignments
• Worn or eroded enamel

Even if you’re satisfied with how your teeth look, veneers can give you a straighter, whiter, more uniform smile.

What are the benefits of veneers?

Veneers offer many benefits, including:

Natural look

Veneers closely resemble your natural teeth, providing a seamless and natural-looking result.

Stain resistance

Veneers are resistant to stains, allowing you to enjoy a bright and vibrant smile without worrying about discoloration from food and beverages.

Minimal tooth alteration

Compared to some dental procedures, veneers involve minimal alteration of natural tooth structure while still providing significant cosmetic improvements.

Durability

Veneers are durable and can withstand normal biting and chewing forces, offering a long-lasting solution for enhancing the strength and resilience of your teeth.

What does getting veneers involve?

Placing veneers is a multi-step process that typically takes two to three visits and includes:

Consultation

Dr. Annie assesses your teeth, discusses your goals, and determines if veneers are suitable for you.

Preparation

Next, Dr. Annie removes a  small amount of enamel from your teeth to make room for the veneers. She also takes digital impressions to customize your treatment.

Temporary veneers

While an outside lab crafts your custom-made veneers, Dr. Annie places temporary veneers to protect your teeth.

Customization

Skilled technicians create custom veneers to match your desired color, shape, and size.

Bonding

Dr. Annie bonds the veneers to your teeth using a durable adhesive.

Adjustments

The expert dental team checks the fit, making adjustments for optimal comfort and aesthetics.

Final polishing

Finally, Dr. Annie polishes the veneers to achieve a natural and seamless look.
