Porcelain dental veneers are thin shells of ceramic that are custom-made to fit over your teeth to cover cosmetic imperfections. Known for their strength and resilience, these veneers are an ideal choice for addressing a variety of aesthetic concerns. Whether you are looking to correct chips, gaps, stains or misshapen teeth, veneers provide a natural-looking enhancement.
The process of getting veneers at our clinic begins with a thorough consultation with our dentist. During this initial visit, Dr. Scott Johnson discusses your aesthetic goals and examines your dental health to ensure that veneers are the right option for you. We pride ourselves on a patient-centered approach, meaning we listen carefully to your expectations and tailor the treatment to meet your needs.
Once you decide to proceed, we prepare your teeth by gently removing a small amount of enamel to accommodate the veneer. Impressions of your teeth are then taken and sent to a dental lab where each veneer is crafted to our exact specifications. While your custom veneers are being made, we provide a temporary set to protect your prepared teeth and allow you to test the new look and feel. This interim period is an excellent opportunity for you to experience how your final veneers will function and make any necessary adjustments to the final design. The final step is the placement of your porcelain veneers. Once ready, we invite you back to our clinic where we meticulously bond the veneers to your teeth, instantly enhancing your smile. Our attention to detail and dedication to craftsmanship ensure that your new veneers not only look beautiful but also fit comfortably.
We are committed to helping you maintain your veneers for years to come. With proper care, including regular brushing, flossing and routine dental check-ups, your veneers can enhance your smile for well over a decade. We also provide guidance on how to best care for your veneers, including foods to avoid and tips on preserving their brightness.
