Porcelain Veneers – Vintage Park, Houston

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 dental 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 dental 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 dental 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 dental 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
