- 7 Reasons So Many People Love Dental Veneers
Although they’ve been around for several decades, dental veneers have become very popular in recent years. Now, veneers are not just seen on the smiles of the rich and famous —the influence of social media and growing access to high-quality private dental treatments mean that they’re everywhere.
Veneers are one of the most popular cosmetic treatments available, and our team are highly- experienced at perfecting smiles with this procedure. So, what’s driving the interest? And how are veneers placed?
This guide explores some of the benefits of dental veneers and the treatment basics you need to know if you’re considering this population option.
Every veneer we place is tailored to the smile it will enhance. That means we can perfect the shape, size, texture and colour. If you’re having several veneers, the result is a natural-looking smile that’s pristine and uniform.
These fine porcelain shells that cover the visible surfaces of your teeth are more than just a cosmetic fix. We use veneers to cover cracks and stains and improve the appearance of slightly misaligned and misshapen teeth.
Veneers can improve the appearance of a smile that’s affected by multiple problems.
We place veneers over two appointments. In the first session, we’ll prepare your teeth and take impressions so the lab can craft your new smile. The next time we see you will be for the veneer placement.
The changes are immediately visible, and you’ll love your new smile. You may show it off lots, even if you don’t intend to!
During your first appointment, we’ll remove a fine enamel layer from the teeth receiving implants. This ensures that the veneers match the proportions of your smile. We’ll give you an anaesthetic for this part of the procedure.
Once the veneers are prepared, we’ll invite you back and bond them into position. This stage is very simple.
Porcelain veneers give the fronts and sides of your teeth extra protection from decay. When used to cover slightly damaged teeth, it stops bacteria from entering the tooth and causing infection.
Once in place, your veneers will remain fixed. So, unlike aligners or dentures, you won’t ever need to take them out. To ensure your veneers look good for years to come, you’ll need to take care of them.
The good news is that caring for veneers is no different to looking after your natural teeth. Brush twice daily, floss, use mouthwash, and visit us for checkups and hygiene appointments.
Although they’ll give your teeth a bright and healthy appearance, just like your natural teeth, veneers can stain if you don’t take proper care of them. Avoid smoking and remember to brush after eating or drinking anything that could cause staining.
Porcelain is durable, but it’s not as hard as dental enamel. Don’t chew on anything solid like pen lids or ice cubes.
Following the simple care advice mentioned above, your veneers should last for ten or more years. If your veneers lose their sparkle after a decade of wear, we can easily replace them in the future, restoring your beautiful smile.
Dental veneers are an elegant and completely natural-looking smile enhancement that covers damaged or discoloured teeth to give them a beautiful and uniform appearance. Veneers help you fall in love with your smile again while protecting them from decay and infection.
