What are Veneers?

According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD), a veneer is a “thin piece of porcelain used to re-create the natural look of teeth, while also providing strength and resilience comparable to natural tooth enamel.” These are custom made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve your appearance. These shells are bonded to the front of the teeth. But veneers are an irreversible treatment, so having them placed is a big decision. Dr. Leila will guide you to decide if this is what you need

What’s the Procedure for Getting a Porcelain Veneer?

At the first consultation, we will discuss with you about your expectation and your desired results. After your teeth are prepared, a model of your teeth will be sent to the lab to get your custom veneer shells made.

When the Veneer shells are ready we carefully bond them in place and you will have a beautiful and dazzling new smile!

What Are the Advantages of Porcelain Veneers?

• They provide a natural tooth appearance.
• Porcelain veneers are stain resistant.
• Veneers offer a conservative approach to changing a tooth’s color and shape; veneers generally don’t require the extensive shaping prior to the procedure that crowns do, yet offer a stronger, more aesthetic alternative.

Do Porcelain Veneers Require Special Care?

Porcelain veneers do not require any special care. Continue to follow good oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing, and rinsing with an antiseptic mouthwash as you normally would.

Although veneers are stain-resistant, it is better that you avoid any stain-causing things, like wine, coffee, and tobacco, to maintain your smile. Veneers can last for years when cared for properly!
