May 15, 2017Using Laser Technology in Dentistry
June 5, 2017Porcelain veneers are among the most popular ways of creating a more aesthetic, beautiful and pleasing smile. The more you know about porcelain veneers, the better equipped you will be to decide if this is the right treatment for you.
Veneers provide a convenient solution for those who are dealing with stained or cracked teeth. By replacing the surface of your teeth with durable, beautiful porcelain, patients can enjoy having the smile of their dreams every single day.
You will want to schedule a consultation with our dentist to find out if veneers are the right course of action for you. This is because they are considered a permanent and non-reversible type of dental treatment.
In most cases, patients can have porcelain veneers installed without using any form of anesthetic. However, our dentist is concerned with you being as comfortable as possible throughout the entire procedure. For this reason, if you feel nervous or if you have especially sensitive teeth, let us know and we will adjust your treatment accordingly.
Porcelain is the gold standard for veneers because it is exceptionally strong and looks just like natural teeth. This means that your veneers should be able to stand up to just about any type of food you have in your normal diet. However, you should still care for your porcelain veneers like you would your teeth.
In order to get the most out of your porcelain veneers, you need to keep them well maintained. You’re going to want to brush and floss your teeth like you usually do. Do not worry about flossing or brushing damaging the veneers because it won’t. If you have a good at-home oral hygiene routine, you can rest assured that your porcelain veneers will stay in good condition for many years.
After you have received your porcelain veneers, we will likely ask you to come back for a follow-up appointment. This is just to ensure that everything is going smoothly with your veneers and you are fully enjoying your new smile.
