Smile With Confidence With Porcelain Veneers
When you have a smile with stains or problems with the shape of the teeth or the gaps between them, then you need cosmetic dentistry. For many, we could correct multiple problems with a single treatment option. In today’s blog, your Cleveland, TX, dentist talks about our custom and natural looking porcelain veneers.
The Cosmetic Improvements Veneers Offer
Since these cover the front and sides of the teeth, we can use them to address a variety of cosmetic concerns. For example, we can mask the permanent teeth stains, also known as intrinsic discoloration, that may not respond to teeth whitening. Our team could also use them to close embarrassing gaps between the teeth and lengthen worn down teeth. We can repair minor cracks or chips, or address misshapen teeth too. We even place them to correct the appearance of your misalignment without the use of braces or aligners.
Crafting Your Cosmetic Restorations
To ensure optimal results and a lifelike appearance, as well as properly balanced bite, we will custom-made each one. To get started, we will numb the tooth or teeth and gently remove a thin layer of outer enamel to make room for the restoration. Next, detailed digital images will be taken and used to design and craft a restoration tailor made for your smile. We create them from porcelain, a very strong and durable material that can handle daily bite forces and pressure. This is why the same material is used to create crowns and even replacement teeth. The material is translucent like natural enamel, and we will match it to blend with your smile. We may even whiten teeth beforehand so they match your brightest possible smile!
Placement and Care
When the porcelain veneer is ready, our team will attach it to the tooth with a powerful bonding agent, making any necessary adjustments as needed. Once attached, they can stay in place for years to come. To keep them bright and in place, you need to brush and floss daily, enjoy a healthier diet, and of course, see our team for a checkup and cleaning visit every six months. These same actions also help safeguard the smile against cavities, infection, and even gum disease.
