What if we have a single cosmetic treatment that could address multiple esthetic issues at once? Well, with porcelain veneers, we can do just that! With our cosmetic restorations, we can offer major transformation in just two visits. In today’s blog, your Woodland Hills, CA, dentist talks about our porcelain veneers.
The Cosmetic Issues Our Veneers Address
Each porcelain veneer is a very thin dental restoration that fits onto the front of the tooth, and makes instant changes to the shape and color. Our team can use them to correct misshapen teeth, repair minor damage, and even add length to teeth worn down by grinding or clenching. We’ve placed them to close gaps between the teeth and even correct the appearance of minor misalignment, so you have a straighter looking smile without the need for braces or aligners. Our team can even mask permanent teeth stains too! For some, this could provide a smile makeover in just two visits.
How We Craft These Lifelike Restorations
The first visit involves gathering the information we need to create custom cosmetic restoration for your smile. We begin by examining your smile to see if these are right for you. If so, we will numb the teeth being treated and then remove a thin layer of enamel from them to make room for your new restorations. We then take detailed images and measurements of them with digital technology. In a dental lab, we will employ these images and measurements to design and craft the finished product, a thin veneer that can offer substantial smile improvement upon placement!
Connecting Your New Restorations
When they are ready, you will return to the face so we can check the fit and make any necessary adjustments. We then attach them with a powerful bonding agent. They can stay in place for years to come, and keep your smile bright and beautiful. To keep them bright and safeguard the teeth we’ve attached them to, be sure you undergo checkups and cleanings every six months, brushing and flossing daily, and cut back on the sugar and starch in your diet. Avoid tobacco products too! These actions help keep your smile bright and also fight issues like tooth decay and gum disease.
If you have any questions about how we create and place our custom veneers, or about tips for keeping them bright and strong for years to come, then contact our team today to learn more.
