What are Dental Veneers?
Stains, chips, cracks, misshapen teeth, gaps, slightly misaligned teeth, and even crowded teeth are some of the many imperfections dental veneers can hide. Customized to change the size, color, and shape of a person’s smile, they are positioned over the front-facing surfaces of teeth so that imperfections are fully concealed. What remains is a natural-looking, uniform appearance that helps to boost a person’s confidence and allows for better oral health.
The Process of Getting Veneers
To receive customized veneers, a person must first meet with our cosmetic dentist in Lockport to discuss their candidacy for treatment. If no additional preliminary services are required, our team will begin by taking impressions of the individual’s teeth. This will be sent to a dental laboratory, where technicians will use the specifications provided to begin crafting the restorations.
During this initial appointment, we will also remove a small portion of enamel from the surface of each tooth undergoing treatment. The step is essential, as the bonding agent must properly adhere, allowing the veneer to lay flat against the tooth when put into place.
Patients do not need to worry, as it is only a minimal amount of enamel being removed; however, this step does mean that veneer treatment is permanent and cannot be reversed.
Before leaving the initial appointment, the patient will receive temporary veneers that are to be worn until the finalized set is ready for placement.
Once the veneers are returned to our dental office, the patient will come in for their second appointment and have the temporaries removed. It is then that we will begin to place each veneer with optimal precision. The artistic skill of our cosmetic dentist will ensure that these restorations lay flat and appear completely natural once they are in place.
