What are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells, typically crafted from porcelain, that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. They act like a mask of perfection, covering imperfections and creating a flawless, harmonious smile. Veneers are a highly effective way to address various cosmetic concerns, providing both aesthetic and functional improvements.
What Can Dental Veneers Correct?
Dental veneers are designed to correct a long list of smile imperfections, including:
- Tooth discoloration: Severely stained or discolored teeth that do not respond to traditional whitening methods.
- Chipped or broken teeth: Restore the natural shape and integrity of damaged teeth.
- Worn-down teeth: Veneers can lengthen and restore teeth that have been shortened by grinding or erosion.
- Gaps between the teeth: Close small gaps and create a more uniform smile.
- Misshapen or uneven teeth: Correct irregularities in size, shape, and symmetry.
- Minor smile misalignment: In some cases, veneers can create the illusion of straighter teeth without the need for orthodontics ("instant orthodontics").
Why Choose Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers mimic the translucency and luster of natural tooth enamel to create beautiful, natural-looking results. Porcelain is also ultra-durable; with proper care, porcelain veneers are designed to last for many years.
Porcelain is highly resistant to staining from coffee, tea, and other common culprits. In most cases, only a minimal amount of tooth enamel needs to be removed to accommodate the veneer.
The Dental Veneers Process at Acre Wood Dental in Round Rock
To begin your smile transformation with dental veneers, we'll begin with a thorough consultation to discuss your smile goals and assess your oral health. We'll use digital imaging and models to design your ideal smile, allowing you to visualize the potential results.
In a gentle, comfortable procedure, our doctors will remove a minimal amount of enamel (if any), which is gently removed from the front of your teeth to help create space for the veneers.
Precise impressions of your teeth are taken and sent to a skilled dental laboratory, where your custom veneers are meticulously crafted. In some cases, temporary veneers may be placed to protect your teeth while your permanent veneers are being made. Once your custom veneers are ready, we'll carefully bond them to your teeth, ensuring a perfect fit and a natural-looking result. We'll make any necessary adjustments to ensure your comfort and satisfaction.
We'll then polish your new veneers to a beautiful shine and provide you with detailed instructions on how to care for them to ensure their longevity.
