Cosmetic Dental Veneer Services
Veneers were originally devised by a dental surgeon in California. However, at the time the glue used was no good and the veneers came off after a short period. Nowadays, veneers have been highly modernized. Using modern bonding adhesives, the can bond to teeth for 30 years. Prior to dental veneers, one of the only ways to correct dental imperfections was to cover the tooth with a crown. Nowadays, veneers as such are utilized to greatly enhance the look of the teeth and/or for the reparation or protection of damaged tooth surfaces.
What is the definition of ‘veneer’? It is defined as “a thin layer of a material bonded to the surface of a less attractive or inferior material.” Veneers in dentistry are very thin layers of artificial tooth (made either of porcelain or a resin composite) that are the natural color of your tooth and are placed on your tooth.
What makes you a candidate for veneers? Unsightly gaps between your teeth, broken or chipped teeth, poorly shaped and crooked teeth; worn down, uneven, or misaligned teeth. Veneers are also used to handle teeth that are permanently discolored or stained from the inside and outside that are not able to be brought back to the natural color through professional teeth whitening.
Veneers come in the form of porcelain or composite resin (as mentioned earlier). Your local dentist is able to let you know which is best suited for you.
Veneers are highly resistant to the staining from coffee, tea, tobacco etc. They can make your teeth look good and feel healthy; while giving you a new, better look.
Veneers have had rave reviews from dentists and patients alike. Stories are abundant about how they have literally changed people’s lives by giving them new confidence, so they are no longer shying away from others due to the state of their teeth.
Even though dental veneers are in the realm of cosmetic dentistry, the procedure is relatively simple, fast, and straightforward. They immensely improve one’s looks, reinforce one’s teeth, and may be exactly what you need to improve your look and smile.
Veneers are manufactured at the laboratory, following your first appointment with your local dental expert. During your initial visit, your dentist will consult with you about the procedure and will take a mold of the tooth/teeth to be veneered. After your veneer(s) have been produced in the laboratory, your local dental expert will place them on the respective tooth/teeth. After this, he will talk to you about how to take care of your veneers so that they remain in good condition and last long.
