Common cosmetic concerns dental veneers treat include:

Stains & discoloration
Damaged teeth
Misaligned teeth
Irregularly shaped or sized teeth
Gaps between teeth

Making Customized Veneers

To determine if you’re a suitable candidate for veneers, visit your dentist for a comprehensive assessment. We’ll go over your goals and examine your oral health to ensure this is the right route to take when it comes to improving your smile.

Preparing Your Teeth for Veneers

To prepare your teeth for your veneers, your dentist reshapes the surfaces of your teeth and trims down your enamel. This part of the process will get your teeth ready for when the veneers need to be applied. Your dentist may numb the area to avoid any discomfort.

Customizing Your Veneers

Your teeth are unique, and so are your custom veneers.

Designing and creating your veneers requires an initial impression. The impression will be sent off to make your permanent veneers. It can take 2–4 weeks for the completed veneers to return. In the meantime, temporary veneers can be applied to your teeth.

Permanently Bonding Your Veneers

When the completed veneers arrive at our office, we’ll schedule an appointment to permanently bond them to your teeth. Before applying, we’ll examine the fit and function of the veneers and make any necessary adjustments. The last step permanently applies the veneers to your natural teeth.

Long-Lasting Results with Dental Veneers

Veneers can last 7–15 years on average before eventually needing a replacement. Continue to follow a good oral hygiene routine to maintain the health of your teeth and gums.

At your next dental exam and cleaning, talk to your dentist about veneers and if they are a fitting option for your dental needs. Book your next appointment.
