What Is A Dental Veneer?
According to the American Dental Association, a veneer is a permanent change that is used to correct dental imperfections, such as stained or glued teeth. The veneers are thin porcelain or composite resin veils that are bonded to the front surface of the tooth using dental cement.
Because veneers are permanent, it is necessary to obtain all information and weigh the pros and cons before deciding to obtain them.
Types Of Dental Veneers
Dental veneers can be made from porcelain or resin composite materials. Porcelain veneers resist stains better than resin veneers. They also better mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural teeth. You will need to discuss the best choice of veneer material for you with your dentist.

The veneer is a popular cosmetic treatment to align your smile beautifully, to create a uniform look with shapely teeth. These thin porcelain spheres can accommodate the size, color, or shape of teeth and protect you from the need for more extensive restoration treatments.
Although veneers fall into the category of cosmetic dentistry, other benefits include durability and no need to reduce the structure of the teeth compared to crowns.
5 Common Problems Dental Veneers Can Solve
- Damaged enamel with the use of soft drinks, tea or coffee, smoking, and some medications.
- Genetic issues such as abnormal spacing between teeth that increase with age.
- Damage and tear such as chips, cracks, or a generally irregular appearance.
- Uneven teeth as a result of grinding or clenching or normal wear and tear.
- Discoloration that does not respond to leucorrhoea treatment.
The Veneer Treatment Process
A veneer can restore the natural appearance of healthy, young teeth. If you qualify for a veneer by first screening and diagnosing any oral health concerns, we can help with your search. Imaging technologies provide you with a preview of your expected results and help us create a customized design plan.
Dentists place tooth models in front of a patient’s mouth to compare tooth color treatment of your dental veneer can usually take two seizures in six weeks. First, a small portion of your original tooth enamel should be removed so that the custom veneer fits correctly. Because the amount extracted is less than a millimeter, the veneer can restore natural function without being aggressive.
Impressions will be made to make accurate measurements for your final veneer, and a temporary space will be kept in place until your restoration is complete.
At the time of your appointment, we will remove the temporary ones and place your final veneer. Each veneer will be evaluated and adjusted to ensure optimal fit and color.
Taking Care of Your Custom Veneers
Glued or fragmented porcelain veneers cannot be repaired, so aftercare is very important. Reduce the risk of damage by cutting or chewing hard objects like walnut shells, and do not use them to open or tear your teeth. We will also provide you with a list of foods that may cause harm.
Veneers are durable and can last for 15 to 20 years before needing replacement. Brush and floss your teeth as you normally do and visit our office regularly for exams and dental cleaning to maintain the health of your mouth and the longevity of your renovations.
