Benefits of Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are one of the best
cosmetic dentistry services
we have to offer. Patients can enjoy many unique advantages after getting
veneers, including:
-
Versatility: Porcelain veneers can correct a wide range
of flaws all at once for amazing results.
-
Customization: Choose the exact size, shape, and shade of
your veneers to achieve your ideal smile.
-
Beauty: Dental porcelain looks and feels like your
natural teeth, and it even reflects light like the rest of your smile for
unmatched beauty.
-
Quality: Dental porcelain can last for years to come with
proper care. Plus, it’s relatively stain-resistant, which makes it
harder to discolor your smile in the future.
The Porcelain Veneers Procedure
The process for getting porcelain veneers will typically just take 2 visits.
During the first, Dr. Castleberry will prepare your teeth. Typically, a
slight portion of the tooth enamel must be removed to make room for your
veneers. Once this is done, he will take impressions and images of your
teeth, which are sent to a lab for customization. You’ll be given
temporary veneers to maintain your appearance.
Then, after your veneers are fabricated, you’ll come back into our
office. Dr. Castleberry will ensure that you’re happy with the results
before permanently bonding the veneers to your teeth. All that’s left
to do is walk out of our office with a beautiful and confident smile!
Aftercare for Porcelain Veneers
The best part about porcelain veneers is that they don’t require a
special maintenance routine. However, it’s still important to brush,
floss, and visit our office regularly for checkups. Remember, you’ll
still have your natural teeth under your veneers, which can be affected by
decay, cavities, and infection. Also, try to avoid poor lifestyle
habits like tobacco use and heavy consumption of alcohol. By following these
steps, you can enjoy your veneers for years.
Am I a Candidate for Porcelain Veneers?
The best way to know if you’re a candidate for this cosmetic treatment
is to come into our office for a consultation. Dr. Castleberry will
carefully examine your smile before recommending porcelain veneers. If you
have any preexisting dental problems, these may need to be treated before
starting. However, those who could benefit from veneers will typically have:
- Chipped teeth
- Cracked teeth
- Discolored teeth
- Slightly gapped teeth
- Slightly crooked teeth
- Misshapen teeth
