DENTAL VENEERS
Smile confidently and comfortably again
WHAT ARE DENTAL VENEERS?
Dental veneers are thin tooth covers made of porcelain or resin composite. These shells are bonded tightly to your teeth, transforming your smile. Though veneers look just like real teeth, they are customized to your needs including color, shape, length and appearance to ensure your smile is everything you want it to be. When your teeth become damaged, misaligned or discolored, it can have a significant impact on your self-confidence. Everyone wants a smile they feel proud to show off, and cosmetic issues with your teeth can hold you back from smiling your brightest and living life to the fullest. That’s why at Modern Smiles, we offer cosmetic treatments like veneers to help you smile confidently and comfortably again.
VENEER PURPOSE
WHAT CAN DENTAL VENEERS DO FOR YOU?
Dental veneers sit on top of your existing teeth to improve their appearance, so there may be a variety of reasons you choose to get them. As such, the applications and purposes of dental veneers are similarly varied.
Fix Chipped Teeth
If your teeth have been worn down or chipped over time, veneers can cover and smooth out the worn or sharp edges of your teeth.
Fix Discolored or Stained Teeth
If your teeth are discolored due to food and drink stains, the use of certain medications, root canals, drug use or some other cause, dental veneers cover the discolored teeth to give you the appearance of a bright, white smile.
Fix Misaligned Teeth
If your teeth are misaligned, irregularly shaped, or have too much space between them, veneers may also be able to help.
By shaping and designing the veneers to meet your specific needs, the Modern Smiles team can provide you with a beautiful, uniform appearance in your smile. Occasionally, you may choose to get veneers for a combination of any two or more of these reasons. Because the veneers are customized to your needs and goals, the Modern Smiles team will work with you to meet all your cosmetic dentistry needs.
WHAT TO EXPECT WITH VENEERS
When you come in for your first visit with us, the Modern Smiles team will examine and discuss your teeth and speak with you about what your goals are for treatment. We also take an impression or mold of your teeth so make sure the veneers are properly constructed. These molds will then be sent to our labs, where individual veneers will be created just for you.
Before bonding the veneers to your teeth, your dentist will reshape the surface of your existing teeth. This prepares the teeth so that the veneers can bond firmly. After application, a follow-up appointment may be recommended to check the strength and placement of the veneers after a certain amount of time.
