What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers, a cosmetic dentistry option, are shells of porcelain cemented to the front-facing parts of teeth. They are custom-crafted to complement your smile and blend seamlessly.
Veneers may conceal the following tooth imperfections:
- Gummy smiles
- Worn or short teeth
- Slightly crooked teeth
- Unusual gaps between teeth
- Stained or discoloured teeth
While there are many types of restorations available, our team provides high-quality porcelain veneers in Charlestown. Porcelain closely resembles tooth enamel and is resistant to stains.
Veneers bring your smile to life by hiding the imperfections!
The Dental Veneer Process
After you consult with the dentist, which includes discussing cost, smile goals, and candidacy, we schedule your treatment.
Your dentist removes a bit of enamel to ensure veneers fit flush and don’t bulk away from the gums. Removing enamel means you must consider your veneers permanent and replace one if it is ever lost or damaged.
After placing your veneers, you can enjoy your meals and chew naturally. To protect your dental work, we advise against using your teeth or veneers as tools to open bottles or packaging.
As for dental veneer care, you treat them as if they are unrestored teeth. You should brush, floss, and visit your dentist every six months for dental check-ups and professional teeth cleans. If you lose or damage a veneer in the future, contact our dental team to arrange a visit with the dentist.
