Veneers are thin coverings that are placed over the visible part of the tooth. Veneers look and feel like natural teeth. They are used to improve the appearance of stained, chipped, cracked, and worn-down teeth. Dental Veneers can also be used to close gaps between teeth. Teeth can become worn down or stained from tobacco use, caffeine, and food. With just a few visits, veneers can provide a permanent fix to years of damage to your teeth.
The most common type of dental veneer is made out of porcelain. Porcelain is a strong material that resists stains. Veneers made out of porcelain mimic the natural light reflecting properties of your teeth. The porcelain veneers are bonded to the front of the teeth to give a permanent beautiful smile. Veneers can also be made from a composite resign. The composite bonding material is a similar product to what is used when completing a tooth-colored filling. The composite veneers are available in several different shades. This allows the veneers to mirror the natural coloring of your teeth to create a perfect match. After a consultation with your dentist, they will recommend the best fit to meet your needs.
Porcelain veneers involve a multi-step treatment plan. After the initial consultation with your dentist, your teeth will need to be prepped. An impression of the tooth/teeth must be made by a lab technician. The veneer will then be molded to fit. Veneers require a small amount of enamel to be removed to ensure a proper fit. Because of this enamel removal, veneers are non-reversable and permanent. Once the teeth are buffed and cleaned, the veneer is the bonded to the tooth permanently with a special cement. The bonding agent is then dried with a light. The porcelain veneers are completed over 2-3 visits with the dentist.

The dentist will roughen the front part of your tooth, buff, and clean it in preparation. Your teeth may need to be slightly shaped to ensure uniform size. A few different prepping solutions will then be applied to the treatment surface. The dentist will select the correct shade of the composite veneers to match your natural teeth. The composite resign will be placed over your tooth and molded to the desired shape. When the desired looks are achieved, a bonding light will be used to harden and cure the composite resign in place. The final step is to smooth and polish the new veneer.
