Transform your smile with high-quality veneers from Optima Dental Associates. Our top-rated cosmetic dentist, Dr. Mustafa, can’t wait to help you achieve a smile you’ll love.
What can dental veneers do for my smile?
Rarely are people born with naturally beautiful smiles. Even then, gorgeous smiles can be damaged by everyday use, lifestyle choices, and accidents. Dental veneers allow people with flawed teeth to find new love for their smiles.
Dental veneers are custom-designed porcelain shells attached to the front surfaces of your teeth. They are used to improve the size, shape, color, and alignment of your smile. Dental veneers are versatile. They can correct several dental issues, including:
- Chipped or worn-down teeth
- Discolored teeth
- Gapped teeth
- Mildly crooked or misaligned teeth
- Oddly shaped or sized teeth
Creating and placing veneers requires technical skills and an artist’s eye for detail. Every smile is unique, and missing these details can result in plasticky, fake-looking veneers. Our dentist combines advanced technology and artistic skills to plan and create veneers that look and feel natural. They also enhance your bite pattern, ensuring you feel comfortable from the very first day.
How are porcelain veneers placed?
The process involves two simple appointments. During the first appointment, we will evaluate your teeth to determine your eligibility for veneers. You will likely qualify for veneers if you do not have tooth decay or active gum disease.
Next, tooth preparation is minimal to none. The enamel removed is microscopic, just enough to accommodate the thickness of veneers. Then, we’ll take digital impressions of your teeth and send the records to a dental lab, where your veneers are created to match the exact specifications of your teeth. Until your new veneers are ready, we will protect your prepped teeth with provisional veneers.
During your second visit, Dr. Mustafa will assess the fit, comfort, and appearance of your veneers. He’ll make a few tweaks before bonding your veneers with durable dental adhesives.
What are the benefits of porcelain veneers?
Porcelain veneers offer the perfect choice for a smile makeover. Here are some of their key benefits.
- Natural aesthetics: Porcelain veneers are translucent, not opaque white. This surface reflects light like natural enamel, giving veneers the life-like appearance they are known for.
- Durability: Modern porcelain veneers are stronger and more durable than ever. The average lifespan of veneers is 10 years, although some can last over 15 years.
- Stain resistance: Unlike natural enamel, porcelain is non-porous. This means veneers won’t absorb stains from coffee, red wine, etc., so they look brilliant year after year.
- Versatility: Dental veneers can address various dental problems effectively. They can be applied to a single tooth or multiple teeth for a complete transformation.
